THOMAS, Circuit Judge:

At issue in this appeal is whether proof of true identity is an essential element of the government's proof for a conviction pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1542 for using a passport obtained through the use of a false statement and making a false statement in an application for another passport. We conclude it is not and affirm the judgment of conviction.
