I wouldn't call the person who told you the story a liar, but a certain
amount of embellishment is often the case. Sometimes to the extent that
the original story is changed beyond recognition, or entirely made up.
I've been told first person accounts of a Vietnam War story by two
different people. The stories were nearly identical. They both
couldn't be the same person, could they? Most probably they heard a
good story and passed it on with themselves as the protagonist. I'm not
saying thats the case here, but I'd take the story with a grain of salt
until I have independent confirmation. It wasn't delivered under oath
in court was it?
