"Phillips said he grew up in an abusive home, started working on construction and lumber jobs, and then joined the Marines, serving in the Vietnam War."

I wonder if he "join" or was he drafted..?

"He later moved to Washington, D.C., and became active with Native American issues. He’s now with the Native Youth Alliance and also does work with Native American veterans"

He moved to DC. and became a politician..???

He may have rightfully been awarded the Vietnam service ribbon even if he did not serve in Vietnam. As long as he was in the service during a certain time frame that extended after the troops were withdrawn. I should know, I got one. It was a long time ago, friends.

Ironic that Kathy Griffin called for the kids to get doxxed and the only one that’s happening to is the Indian.

He should have called himself a Viet Era veteran instead ,, that’s if he saw no combat, wasn’t lifted off the roof of the Saigon embassy by heli, been a ‘Recon Ranger’ and such ..

altho I hear he has jumped over pipelines.. we’ll have to let the dust settle .. or he could release his DD214.
