'Millionaire' Bride Under Scrutiny, Too
In yet another embarrassing revelation concerning the "Who Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire?" fiasco, it has now turned out that bride Darva Conger was not, as she claimed on the show, a veteran of the Gulf War. "Inside Edition" on Monday produced documents showing that Conger spent the period stateside. "From looking at her records, it wouldn't lead you to believe that" she ever saw action, an Air Force spokesman told today's (Tuesday) Washington Post. Conger, on the other hand, claimed on Monday, "Anyone on active duty at the time of that war is considered a Gulf War veteran." But retired Col. Daniel Smith, director of research at the Center for Defense Information, told "Inside Edition," "You can't call yourself a Gulf War veteran if you've never been to the Gulf."
