Tim Walz was a battalion Command Sergeant Major ("CSM") in a Minnesota National Guard battalion when his unit got the order to deploy to Iraq.
Upon receiving such order, he abruptly retired and abandoned his unit, his soldiers and his country.
For those who don't know, in an Army battalion, the CSM is the highest-ranking NCO and the top dog who sets the example for all the soldiers in the unit.
The example Walz set was one of cowardice in the face of the enemy.In an era where pretty much everyone in uniform served in combat, Walz ran and hid.
Contrast this with JD Vance, who--when 9/11 happened--ran to his nearest enlistment office.
As a retired Army officer and admirer of the NCO Creed, I cannot think of a more disgraceful and dishonorable action than Walz' ignominy.
It disgusts me that this coward has reached such a high level of prominence.
Most solders I know would have died of shame before they would not deploy with their unit to war.
If you are a veteran, I don't see how you can vote for him.
If you hate Trump, vote for RFK Jr.... but do not vote for this lily-livered, mealy-mouthed coward with a yellow streak down his back a mile wide who disgraced the uniform and our flag.
