PHOENIX — A Queen Creek man has been indicted by a federal grand jury for making false claims about medals, awards and training he received during his military career.
Kurt Alan Bishop, 42, claimed he was awarded the Bronze Star with Valor, Purple Heart and that he received training to become an Army Ranger, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
The indictment alleges that Bishop, an army chaplain, began making false claims in 1991 shortly after he ended his first tour of duty.
