Vet Affairs Sec. Robert McDonald: "I was SF." Well....perhaps not. |
2015-02-24 |
McDonald, appointed to head the scandal-ridden VA last year, served as a captain in the Army's 82nd Airborne Division between 1975 and 1980. And though he completed Army Ranger training, the former Procter & Gamble CEO was never a member of a special forces. Former P&G CEO comes clean ? |

#2 Why did he have to exaggerate? 82nd ABN, Ranger School, good service record is a great thing. Now he look like an idiot. In the late 70's the 82nd did perform training and ops with the SF groups there, and some were detailed over for short periods due to MOS shortages. Hope he answers to this. |

#1 He wasn't SF and shouldn't have said he was, but completing Ranger training is still pretty special. Too bad he felt he had to exaggerate. |
