Some background info on Walz's military rank

[FlippyDoo]

It's more complicated than a single charity doing $250M in fraud, and whether it is relevant to Walz I've not seen. At least one of the charities is on trial, so their fraud is not ongoing. https://conservativecave.com/cave/index.php?topic=134707.msg1547623#msg1547623

This is unrelated to the thread topic, Walz's military service.

Has anyone calculated how many days that Walz was actually "active" in the Guard? There is probably a more accurate term than "active" but I don't know what it is.

I think there is a revealing and interesting comparison between Iowa U.S. Senator Joni Ernst and MN Goobernor Walz. While he did serve in the Minnesota National Guard with his misleading rank, etc., he is beloved by the Democrat party. And why? Because he's a woketard.

Senator Ernst was a Lieutenant Colonel in the Iowa National Guard who did serve as a company commander during Operation Enduring Freedom in Kuwait and Iraq. But the lefties despise her because she isn't a liberal.

I worked with Joni Ernst when we had flooding here in my county back in 2011. I found her to be everything you see on TV and what she says. A stand-up person and as smart as they come. Something that Walz doesn't seem to be given what is known about his service.

The thing is that in the National Guard there are Full Time members and then there are those like me that were there mostly for the weekend drills unless your unit gets activated and then you are all on active-duty status. I am not sure where a MSG or a CSM would fall under the full-time status or just show up for the weekend, but I think it would have to do with them either being in an administrative slot or a slot where they are leading troops which is what Walz signed up for. I am pissed off that Walz gets to the rank of CSM and walks away and it leaves a black eye on my old Division which I and my father bother served in.

I thought I read in a thread here that it’s 2 days a month and 2 weeks a year. That would be roughly 31 weeks. I spent more time than that submerged.

Yeah, that is what I was thinking, but he was at Aviano (I believe it was) for awhile. That would add to his total, but I don't know how much. Airwolf mentioned that there was a possibility that he could have spent some time full time at home.

I know the captain at my local Guard here was full time, but I don't know if any of the NCOs were. The only reason I know about the captain here is that when my money ran out at college I stopped by to get info on possibly joining. I also talked to the Navy and Army recruiters. Both the Guard captain and the Navy recruiter were cool dudes who talked to me as long as I wanted to talk and answered all of my questions. The Army recruiter, on the other hand, was a democrat. At least I assume she was because every time her mouth opened a lie fell out.

I know that the few times I have had to stop by our Battalion HQ I saw a few full time NCO's there. One is the recruiter and the other one's are training NCO and the Supply NCO and Maybe one other but I don't remember seeing the CSM in his office unless it was on the weekend. I don;t know about No Ballz Walz unit but that is what happend in my old Ibfantry unit.
