Tim Walz's Military Record Scrutinized by Harris Campaign
News summary

The Harris campaign has revised the biography of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz on its website, changing his designation from 'retired command sergeant major' to state that he 'served as a command sergeant major.' This modification comes amid scrutiny and accusations from Republican opponents, including Sen. JD Vance, regarding Walz's military service claims, particularly that he inflated his military credentials. Although Walz achieved the rank of command sergeant major, he was reverted to master sergeant upon retirement due to not completing necessary coursework. Critics have accused him of 'stolen valor' for suggesting otherwise and for leaving the National Guard shortly before his unit's deployment to Iraq. The campaign's changes reflect a shift from denial to damage control as questions about Walz's military record continue to emerge. The White House has so far avoided directly addressing the ongoing controversy surrounding Walz's military claims.
