Stolen Valor is the seventeenth episode of Season 10 and the 262nd overall episode of Beavis and Butt-Head.
Synopsis[]
Middle-aged Beavis and Butt-Head pose as vets for free beer until they accidentally end up flying a Viet Cong flag and have the crap beaten out of them.
Plot[]
Middle-aged Beavis and Butt-Head are wandering the streets of Highland, with Butt-Head riding his rascal mobility scooter and Beavis begging him in vain to let him have a go. They come by the local American Legion post (just down the street from Burger World) where a couple of vets including Tom Anderson are busy unloading beer from a delivery truck, making the duo decide they need to go party with those dudes. Beavis is hesitant, thinking they would have to be "Americans or something" to be allowed to enter the VA hall, but his friend assures him they can blend in.
Tom Anderson tries to stop them, telling them the VA is having a special get-together for flag day, service members only. Butt-Head assures him they are "service", prompting Beavis to regurgitate the phrases drilled into his head while working the drive-through counter at Burger World. Tom Anderson then asks them if they actually "wore the uniform" which the two deadbeats confirm. Still talking about their days at Burger World, Butt-Head recounts how it was a long time ago and how he remembers that the training sucked, and it was always hot, and you never knew when a bunch of guys would be on his ass, convincing Anderson that they indeed must be army veterans.
The two are next seen sitting at the VA bar, chugging beers and munching nuts when Anderson introduces them to the other vets as "Belvis and Bunhausen" who must have served in Operation Desert Storm, and prompting a vet named Gilmore to tell them the story how he captured a Vietcong flag now hanging behind the VA bar. Their crazy antics convince the vets even more that they must have seen combat. An actual Desert Storm vet asks them what battalion they were in, to which they reply "69", which apparently was a real battalion that saw a lot of action.
Later, the two get ambushed in the back by the Desert Storm vet when returning from a pee break, and he tells them he saw through their lies. It is clear to him they were never in the 69th, which he thinks is their cover story because they must actually have been in the CIA. The duo doesn't know what that is but their denial only reinforces the vet's belief and he gets off their case.
After some more beers, Tom Anderson invites the two to raise the flag on the pole outside. While the vets assemble outside, thinking they are preparing a speech, Beavis and Butt-Head just keep drinking and munching peanuts while accidentally dropping the flag behind the bar. Finally remembering they were supposed to go outside and raise a flag, they rip the VC flag from the wall and raise that one on the pole instead, leading to the vets giving them a beating and hoisting them up on the flagpole by their underpants.

Trivia[]
- This episode reveals that Anderson is alive and well in the timeline where Beavis and Butt-Head never time travelled to 2022. Funnily enough, he looks younger than the middle-aged duo.
- The veteran who grows suspicious of the duo (until coming to the conclusion that they are CIA) strongly resembles Harry Sachz.
