Kinda like the reserves are part time? The National Guard performed with great distinction and sacrifice in Iraq and Afghanistan. I would not spend much time or effort to defend this fraud.

From 1978 to 1998, other than Desert Storm and Bosnia, we were not in any major conflicts that I recall. I worked as a civilian policeman at an Air Guard base from 85 to 88 and while they were busy flying and training, most of them only went on active duty about two weeks a year other than some of the more full-time pilots and ground crews. I'm not defending this man, just saying that his membership in the reserves is possible. IIRC, physicians, veterinarians and related are commissioned as Captains, so promotion to Lieutenant Colonel is very possible within a 20 year career. Remember M*A*S*H? All the physicians were Captain or higher.

It’s starting to look like you don’t know anything about his military record, one way or the other.

I was Active and in the Reserves during that same time period can you prove I wasn’t?

Better yet can you prove that you are not a Fraud
