The father of a Democrat running for a seat in the Washington state House of Representatives has accused his son of lying about his military service.

Brett Shavers is the father of 10th District candidate Clyde Shavers, who has claimed in his campaign that he served for eight years as a nuclear submarine officer, according to the Everett Herald.

The Herald said it spoke to the elder Shavers to ensure it was him who wrote a letter to Republican opponent Greg Gilday.

“I have told him not to do embellishments and exaggerations and it continued and continued, it just reached a point where it’s affecting everyone’s integrity and honesty,” Brett Shavers said by phone, according to the report.

The letter, which addressed multiple issues that Shavers had with his son’s campaign material, said “Clyde was never a submarine officer, not even for a day.”

I know the stress son and Father must have been under.

It freaks me out just to wear the POW-MIA hat my brother gave me, and he worked in that organization.

I wear it and people mention it. I have to admit I do it in memory of my brother...who didn’t die, he just worked with veterans organizations.

It is a great hat, and I love it but wear it sparingly.

My Dad who joined the Navy at age 17 after Dec 7, 1941 and put in 55 years of military and civilian work for the government would tan my hide if I lied.

I remember getting the elbow as they paused playing the National Anthem in the VFW until I doffed my baseball cap. His eyes were on fire. I don’t know if enough veterans are still voting to make a difference what Mr Shavers said, but 30 years ago he would be toast.

I can’t imagine lying about service, it must be a sense of stress constantly waiting to be found out.

It sure was BITD. I grew up in Kitsap county, with Bangor base, Keyport and PSNS being the biggest employers in the county for years. I moved and can’t feel the pulse of the community. There are a lot of civilian contractors now, not so many Federal employees I would think.

“To be clear, this letter is all about politics [January 6 kind of politics].

“This is the kind of politics that’s tearing apart families and communities, and my campaign is about healing and moving forward.”

He's blaming Right Wing Extremism (i.e., Trump) for his stolen valor lies. He must be seeking support from Biden and Pelosi.

The disease that has infected the delusional Left is some powerful magick.
