Rubbish.
You only value Vance because he's a Trumpist.
You belittle Walz's 24 years of service because he's a Democrat.
You simply do not realise how pathetically transparent you are.
" your guy bailed when his unit got the call"
Walz signed up when he was 17.
One of your earlier deflections was "Iit was all the rage in the 60 and 70s ".
Do you think that's relevant for a bloke born in 1964 ?? Which particular US war was he avoiding ?
He was 41 when his unit was called up in 2005. He was then elected to Congress in 2007, defeating the 12 year Republican incumbent.
There are more than enough reasons for you to disparage him.
How did Vance put himself "in harms way" ?
By being posted to Iraq for 6 months as a correspondent who was not involved in any fighting and had an armed escort whenever he left the base ?

Curious,
If one is to discuss JD Vance's time in the Marines one should use his name at the time, James D. Hamel.
Cpl. James D. Hamel's job in Iraq was to escort civilian press and take some photos. Probably wore the eyeliner to bed at night and washed it off in the morning.
