Tim Walz's Military Background Under Scrutiny

Tim Walz, the Minnesota Governor and Vice President Harris's running mate, has a military background that is being examined amidst political attacks. With 24 years in the National Guard, including time spent in Europe supporting Operation Enduring Freedom, Walz holds a notable military record, although he did not see combat. His prior statements, particularly regarding gun control, have raised questions about how he has portrayed his military service. The criticisms intensified when video surfaced where he improperly stated he carried weapons in war, prompting allegations of 'stolen valor,' which the campaign later clarified was a misinterpretation.
