Questioning Walz's Military Service is Just Plain Stupid

[peggysue2]

30. Spot on, MM

My husband enlisted and served during the Vietnam Era. He served six years in the Naval Reserve, two years active on an aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean. Like you, it was a personal decision during the nerve-wracking draft lottery and he had no idea where he'd be sent. He was actually trained for river boats, so he was grateful for the aircraft carrier assignment.

To my knowledge, my husband's never been accused of being a draft dodger. However, when he wears his insignia cap, he's always careful to point out he did not serve in Vietnam but during the Vietnam Era.

The 'Stolen Valor" accusation on Walz is ludicrous and disgusting.
