What do you think about this man successfully imitating a military official? Should more be done to prevent this kind of security breach?

This man posed as an Army Lt General, went into a classified briefing and somehow managed to establish enough credibility to land a helicopter at the SAS headquarters. He is facing the possibility of 3 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

How was he able to do that if he wasn’t a real LT General?
It was at a software company in Cary, North Carolina, and it doesn’t seem like the type of place to just have a LT general show up randomly and want to land a helicopter, sooo why didn’t anyone question it?
