Nash,
So it is never ok for anyone to question anything about a vets service?
Lets talk hypothetical now.
Say a man claims he is a war hero, he runs for office, and he is in fact not a war hero, never did what he claimed, but did serve. It would be wrong for people to question him if they had evidence of it being faked? )
Case in point was it wrong for people to call out Brian Dennehy (actor first blood etc) when he claimed he was a marine vet and I think he claimed to have served in vietnam?
