Ottawa police charged Franck Gervais Saturday for impersonating a decorated soldier during a Remembrance Day ceremony at the National War Memorial in Ottawa.

Gervais, 32, is not a member of the Canadian Forces and faces two charges of personating a public officer, one charge of unlawful use of military uniforms and one charge of unlawful use of military decoration.

After seeing Gervais speaking as a "sergeant" on television, a number of veterans and soldiers called CBC News to question his status as a soldier.

It is an offence for someone who is not serving in the military to wear a current military uniform.

1. Too bad his creepy wife can't get charged too. She was so proud of herself when her 'soldier'

husband was being interviewed on CBC News during the ceremony at the war memorial. She was so proud of the ruse the two of them had on the reporter. Creeps. The both of them.

2. I agree...

She was pretty awful, disrespectful scammers.

3. I'd love to know what the scam is

Like, what's the deal? What do they gain from this?

4. They are obviously sadistic. The payoff is to put others down during a heartfelt moment. The joke

is on the couple though. Imagine going through life like that. Sad.
