Two months after the Harris-Walz campaign corrected Democrat vice presidential candidate Governor Tim Walz’s (D-MN) false claim about his military rank, the governor’s official website has not yet done so.

As CNSNews reported back on August 8, 2024:

“After Harris chose Walz as her running mate, media scrutinized his background and discovered this week that he had been claiming to have retired as a command sergeant major when, in fact, he retired at the lower rank of master sergeant.”

That same day, in a story titled “Harris campaign tweaks Walz biography amid scrutiny of military credentials,” Politico reported that the Harris campaign has “axed a reference to Walz as a ‘retired command sergeant major’ and now says that he once served at the command sergeant major rank.”

Walz’s original biography on the Harris-Walz campaign site called Walz “the son of an Army veteran and a retired Command Sergeant Major in the Army National Guard himself,” Politico reported.

The Harris campaign website’s Walz biography now reads:

“The son of an Army veteran who served as a command sergeant major, Walz was the ranking member on the House Veterans Affairs Committee, where he passed legislation to help stem veterans’ suicides.”

But, despite the strong public condemnation of Walz’s embellishment, the governor has yet to correct the falsehood on his official government website biography.

As of Monday, the governor’s website still implies that Walz retired as a command sergeant major:

“After 24 years in the Army National Guard, Command Sergeant Major Walz retired from the 1-125th Field Artillery Battalion in 2005.”

His rank at retirement isn’t the only suspect claim that Walz has made about his military service drawing the ire of veterans.

He was recently forced to correct the record about his previous false claims that he was in China for the Tiananmen Square protests in 1989. And, according to a correction by the Harris-Walz campaign, he actually went to China only about half as many times as he has claimed.

Likewise, his claim that he actually carried weapons "in war" has been refuted by the National Guard.
