Stolen Valor? Christiane Amanpour Claims She was a Major in the Gulf War

Christiane Amanpour, a CNN “reporter” claimed on X that her “dog tag” during the Gulf War in 1991 had the “rank of Major” on it. In point of fact, it had to be her press pass, not an actual US Military dog tag. Military dog tags never include the rank of those who wear them. Either she is lying and it’s stolen valor or she’s so mistaken as to be an embarrassment to the already embarrassed CNN.
