Original Note:
The senior enlisted man in his battalion, Walz retired unexpectedly before his unit deployed to Iraq. https://alphanews.org/third-command-sergeant-major-corroborates-story-of-walz-dodging-deployment/ Walz was not the highest ranking enlisted man to serve in Congress. Because he failed to fulfill his commitment for CSM status, he was reduced in rank to Master Sergeant. https://www.newsweek.com/national-guard-disputes-tim-walzs-military-biography-1936038
