The Governor General’s office says a retired soldier who was court-martialled for wearing Afghanistan and Somalia medals and parachute wings he wasn’t entitled to at a Remembrance Day ceremony has lost his membership in the Order of Military Merit. Richard Fancy was a member of the regular forces between 1984 and 2010, when he joined the reserves with the Halifax Rifles. He became a master warrant officer in the regiment and received the Order of Military Merit in October 2014, a month before the Remembrance Day incident in Halifax. In May 2016, Fancy pleaded guilty at a court martial to three counts of conduct to the prejudice of good order and discipline and was reduced in rank to warrant officer and fined $300.
