a clip of Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz talking about his memory of Bagram Airfield proved Walz had falsely taken credit for serving in Afghanistan.

It’s too soon to say whether the more substantive criticism from Vance since last week will hurt Walz’s standing with voters. So far,, conducted over the weekend by Morning Consult, suggests voters view Walz favorably by a 5-point margin after his initial days on the campaign trail. Walz has not responded to the criticism. The Democratic presidential campaign declined to comment for this article.

Republicans used the same line of attack against Walz in his successful runs for governor of Minnesota in 2018 and 2022, amplifying complaints from multiple soldiers who served with Walz.” for Walz to retire so he could run for Congress. Others have said he betrayed his unit when it needed his leadership.

Retired Maj. Gen. Randy Manner was responsible for coordinating alert and mobilization orders for the National Guard at the Pentagon from 2006 through 2008. He said an officer’s retirement papers would have to be approved by everyone in their chain of command, and that the ultimate decision would rest with their state’s senior military officer, known as an adjutant general.
