Get this: one guy gets another guy to pose for him during a paternity test so that he won’t have to pay child support to his babymamma in Virginia. The reason? So his wife and children in Pennsylvania wouldn’t find out. Oh, and both men are officers in the US Army. Here’s to standing up for American values.

CARLISLE, Pa. — Two high-ranking U.S. Army officers are accused of teaming up to deceive a paternity test so one of them could avoid making child-support payments.

When [Col. Scott] Carlson went to the domestic relations office in Cumberland County to deny paternity, he was told he would have to submit a DNA sample to show that he was not the father, officials said.

A month after that, officials said Carlson convinced Col. Bruce Adkins to pose as him and provide the DNA sample. The paternity test came back negative, but workers at the domestic relations office caught on to what was happening, officials said.

If convicted, the men face the possibility of prison time. Carlson is currently in Egypt. Adkins is stateside and is expected to turn himself in some time this week.

Officials said Carlson was trying to avoid paying the child support in Virginia because he was trying to keep the situation secret from his wife and children in Pennsylvania.
