Allegedly Lincoln served in a militia during the Revolution.

LOL. Who alleged that?

I though so, but I googled it, it’s a different A. Lincoln.

“During the American Revolutionary War, Abraham served as a captain of the Augusta County militia, and with the organization of Rockingham County in 1778, he served as a captain for that county. He was in command of sixty of his neighbors, ready to be called out by the governor of Virginia and marched where needed.

Abraham Lincoln (captain) - Wikipedia”

Still it has little to do with the point I was making.
