Teacher Impersonates Rear Admiral, Fined £500
Update: 2026-01-06
Description
Jonathan Carley, a former teacher, impersonated a rear admiral in the British navy for fourteen years, wearing a fake uniform and attending military events. He was fined £500 after pleading guilty to wearing unauthorized military dress. Carleys deception unraveled during a Remembrance Sunday parade, where naval veterans exposed his ill-fitting uniform and fake medals. He had no real naval service, having only led cadets. The judge criticized him for disrespecting fallen soldiers, while locals and veterans expressed shock and demanded tougher laws on stolen valor.
