Ersland, 57, has described himself as a disabled Gulf War veteran, but The Oklahoman has learned he left the U.S. Army before the war began.
Ersland left active duty with the Army in February 1989, according to military records. That is more than a year before the first Gulf War began.
Ersland admitted last week he had misrepresented his military service.

I hate to say "I told you so" but like I said, I don't believe a single word that comes from the man's mouth... I don't believe him when he said he thought he was in imminent danger when he shot Parker, in fact his actions and body language show exactly the opposite, and I don't believe he thought that Parker was going for anything, and it will more than likely be found what investigators and the DA assert is true...and I guess that would preclude him claiming PTSD from the Gulf War as well....
