Original Note:
Walz filed for retirement months before his battalion was notified of the *possibility* of deployment, and had already retired before it was formally ordered to mobilize. Walz misspoke when he said he served in war. He was deployed to Italy in 2003 to help U.S. war efforts. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/fact-checking-attacks-on-walzs-military-record-by-vance-and-other-republicans https://www.cnn.com/2024/08/10/politics/walz-national-guard-harris-campaign/index.html
