The Stolen Valor Act was signed into law by President Obama in 2013 and protects the sanctity of the awarding of military decorations, so military service is the closest to the correct answer.

This law was created in response to people posing as having been awarded Purple Hearts, Silver Starts, Medal of Honors and the like.

The right answer is C Military service. The Stolen Valor Act was a federal statute that criminalizes dishonestly demanding to have military honors to obtain any benefit. Also, it declares lying to receive veterans or other assistances like contracts or jobs. It passed the House of Representatives but not the Senate.
