Original Note:
Walz's overseas deployments were to Italy and Norway. Although he was promoted to Command Sergeant Major, Walz retired abruptly when he learned his unit was set to deploy to Iraq, and did not finish his training for the CSM rank and was demoted back to Master Sergeant. https://www.newsweek.com/combat-veterans-like-me-tim-walzs-abandonment-his-unit-unforgivable-opinion-1935591 https://nypost.com/2024/08/06/us-news/tim-walz-embellished-military-career-for-years-dropped-from-national-guard-unit-ahead-of-iraq-deployment/
