Have They No Shame: Another Disgusting Tim Walz 'Stolen Valor' Moment at DNC

[rightwinger]

He was acting, he never completed the requirements to hold the rank.

Most acting in a position do not wear the stripes
Walz was demoted for retirement pay but held the rank up till he retired

*sigh

After school class:

Fraudulent is as fraudulent does. It speaks volumes about Dins and their willingness to lie and deceive.

A Trumper should never, ever mention "fraud" ever:

Background on Trump Organization Properties and Fraudulent Schemes
I. Fraudulent, Misleading Values of Properties and Other Properties

a comment on you mentioning Fraud was made - with a reference to why you should not have done so. no more

Then you jump to the "Trump" being the issue

Your humping Trump’s leg, as usual. This is not a TDS thread.

I tell you you keep bringing it up and...

Then why do you keep bringing it up?

you do

I didn’t. You did. Gawd you’re clueless. Get back into the corner and be silent.

Now here we are because you had to keep the focus on Trump and not Fraud.

correct:
"According to Lt. Col. Kristen Augé, the MNG’s State Public Affairs Officer, Walz “served from April 8, 1981, to May 16, 2005″ during which time he “held multiple positions within field artillery such as firing battery chief, operations sergeant, first sergeant, and culminated his career serving as the command sergeant major for the battalion.”"

Have They No Shame: Another Disgusting Tim Walz 'Stolen Valor' Moment at DNC


It looks like the ballad of Tim Walz's stolen valor scandal just carries merrily on, even into the DNC in Chicago.

King of makes ya wonder why there are no photos of him in his dress greens. Other than when he was first enlisted that is. Makes ya wonder what he's ashamed of.

It hasn't even started yet and he and harris aren't there.

That's funny! Maybe you should turn on the news.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Walz held the position of Command Sergeant Major when he retired and is entitled to the rank
That is enough valor for me

Wrong answer. I'm sorry you lost, but we have some nice parting gift for you! Thanks for playing!

CSM Walz wore the Stripes PROUDLY

The word is "falsely".

If he falsely wore CSM rank he would have been arrested

Not one American in a hundred knows the difference between a "Command Sergeant Major" and a Sergeant Major. Do "we" know that as far as pay grade, they are the same? It is a title associated with a specific assignment, not a separate rank. When the assignment is over, you go back to "Sergeant Major."

It is not certain that Walz approved that introduction, and really, Who cares? All you need to know is that he spent 24 years being paid to - essentially - be ready when called, and when called, he took a powder.

#1 Sergeant Major and Command Sergeant Major are ranks. Which is different than pay grade. Both Sergeant Major and Command Sergeant Major are pay grade E-9. So yes we know E-9 = E-9.

#2 Yes a Command Sergeant Major is also a leadership position having specific meaning. If you are a Command Sergeant Major and stop being a one, you revert to Sergeant Major. In the Navy (my branch) we have Master Chief Petty Officers and Command Master Chief Petty Officers, both are pay grade E-9. A Command Master Chief that chooses to go to a non Command Master Chief billet is still a Master Chief.

#3 You may have used the wrong terminology in your post if you aren't familiar with military ranks. Walz was promoted and filled the Command Sergeant Major billet as an E-9 on a provisional basis. He elected to retire before completing time in grade requirements and reverted to his previous rank of Master Sergeant, pay grade E-8 for retirement benefits purposes. Since he didn't meet the time in grade requirement, the CSM Academy is irrelevant.

Incorrect. He was provisionally promoted and occupied the CSM billet, he was also paid as an E-9.

If he was in an "Acting" status, which has a specific meaning, he would have retrained his previous rank and pay grade. In other words he would have been designated "First Sergeant" and remained an E-8.

However he was provisionally promoted (and paid) to the rank of Command Sergeant Major at paygrade E-9.

Most impressive you discovered how to cut and paste YouTube videos.

You didn’t know stolen Valor Walz is not a Command Master Sergeant? What a total fraud.

 

[debbiedowner]

It was a caucus meeting. And he is there.

Yep, I screwed up and was reading an article from the day before, Sunday.

When I typed this it had not started yet other than a few news people talking and James Taylor practicing his song for the night. I watched for about 10 minutes yesterday afternoon.

Walz is a poser. The fact is, he was introduced at the Dim freak show as a CSM and he is not. What a fraud.

That was his title when he retired.

Command sergeant major is a both a rank and position of office in the United States Army

 

[Hollie]

False.

National Guard disputes Tim Walz's military biography

The Minnesota National Guard said Walz retired as a "master sergeant," not a "command sergeant major," as his biography states.

The Minnesota National Guard is disputing Governor Tim Walz's military biography, saying that the Democratic vice presidential candidate did not hold the rank of command sergeant major at the time of his retirement.

Your slogans are a joke. Why perpetuate the Walz fraud unless it’s to placate your feelings?

Yes he was a Command Sergeant Major in terms of billet, rank, and E-9 pay grade.
