you forgot Nixon, Reagan, Bush 1, Bush 2 + Carter “peacetime” Navy
I realized that after the fact. Was thinking more combat veteran than just service veteran, not that one is greater than the other.
A lot of people don’t realize that Jimmy Carter had already graduated high school when Pearl Harbor was attacked.
He attended Georgia Southwestern College in Americus, Georgia. After a year there, Carter transferred to Georgia Institute of Technology he then got an appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy.
Carter missed all of WWII.
