Historian 'posed as a war hero'

Source: BBC (7-3-09)

A military historian who posed as a war hero has been exposed as a fantasist.

Jack Livesey claimed he won the Military Medal while serving in the Parachute Regiment.

However, the Ministry of Defence confirmed Mr Livesey served in the Army Catering Corps for less than three years.

Former veterans told the BBC they were upset by the way he paraded his medals.
