John Kolb was not Tim Walz's battalion commander. Kolb took over the battalion months after Walz had already retired. People are sharing this and taking advantage of civilians not understanding how military command works. https://twitter.com/BFriedmanDC/status/1822749310208872472 https://ngmnpublic.azurewebsites.us/minnesota-national-guard-staff-lineages/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1822731565635625014

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
