There’s something else here. Walz served 20 years in the guard. Could have retired in 2001 but re-enlisted after 911.
He could have left it there and had some bragging rights to use in his new career as a politician. He never saw combat but he did serve.
Instead he intimates in various forums and repeatedly that he did see combat plus lied about his rank. How much forward thinking did it require to conclude that such play acting might not sit well with the gent who took his place in Iraq nor with the troops under his command.
Is it just me or is Walz a bit of a dim bulb?
Here’s a thought:
In an IQ Challenge Faceoff, who would you pick, Walz or Harris? Either way, the loser would still not be as dumb as Nocera seems to think his readers are. “…eye of the beholder.”. That’s a good one. To top it off he ends the piece on a cliche.

Another lie (or an extension of one) is his claim to being the senior-most enlisted man to ever serve in Congress.
My thoughts exactly. Was he unaware of Kerry’s similar mistake? If so, same conclusion. Not that bright
