Detectives have charged a man for allegedly misrepresenting himself as a returned serviceman at Maryborough.
A complaint was made to police earlier this year after the man allegedly claimed to have fought in overseas war campaigns without being able to provide proof.
The 51-year-old man also held a position with a returned services leagues club.
The Bauple man has been charged with one count each of falsely representing to be a returned soldier and improper use of service decorations.
He is due to appear in Maryborough Magistrates Court on December 17.
