Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democratic vice presidential candidate, is under scrutiny for his military service record, with critics, including Republican Sen. JD Vance, accusing him of misleading statements regarding his combat experience as an Army reservist.
Similar accusations were raised in 2006 during Walz's initial congressional campaign. Letters to a local paper in Mankato, Minnesota, questioned the accuracy of his statements about serving in Iraq or Afghanistan.
