In another photo, Sarah Cavenaugh (AKA Sarah Begler) is shown with the improper wearing of US Marine uniform and insignia:“Initially, it was the uniform,” Forsythe told Coffee or Die Magazine, emphasizing that she was speaking from her own experience as a Marine, not as a Navy spokesperson. Cavanaugh had her collar (insignia) on backward and her earrings were out of regulation, Forsythe said.As she read over Cavanaugh’s claims, they did not add up. The post said Cavanaugh had earned a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star Medal with V, the fourth-highest military decoration for valor, all while Forsythe was a public affairs officer in the Marines. If someone — especially a woman — had earned a Bronze Star with V, she was sure she would have heard about it.
The red flags kept coming.
“I’ve never come across anyone who has faked so much,” Forsythe said.
At first, Simoni couldn’t believe it. She hid the story from HunterSeven’s Instagram, warned Schueman, and began reaching out to contacts at the Department of Veterans Affairs. Eventually, she says, the VA told her Cavanaugh was not in their system.
“I don’t know whose medical records these are,” Simoni said. “But whoever’s medical records these are, the 30-year-old patient dealing with cancer, it’s not her.”
