What should be the penalty for stolen valor (wearing a US military uniform when not military)?

US CITIZENS ONLY (as it is about US military)

It's a crime there's already a penalty that was redefined as of 2005.
"The law made it a federal misdemeanor to falsely represent oneself as having received any U.S. military decoration or medal. If convicted, defendants might have been imprisoned for up to six months, unless the decoration lied about is the Medal of Honor, in which case imprisonment could have been up to one year."

@AMERICA1ST I read that part. I think a year minimum. ESP when a "charity" is involved.
