NAPLES, Fla. — A 72-year-old veteran wanted a Florida Prisoner of War license plate so badly that he lied about being a former POW.

A Collier County judge sentenced Raymond Gauthier to 90 days in jail Tuesday for possessing a phony form used to apply for a POW license plate and discount as a war veteran.

Gauthier had pleaded guilty in April of submitting a form listing bogus military awards and honors to get the plate from the state of Florida.

He was sentenced to probation then, but was charged with violating probation when probation officers found another form during a routine search of his Brevard County home in May. That brought Tuesday’s jail sentence.
