        Did he use bone spurs to get out of serving? Did he avoid the draft somehow?

        Are you asking me? Because yes a lot of elites use deferments to get out of going to war. So what about this specific elites deferment is driving you crazy? Why couldn’t Obama serve in Vietnam, or Biden or Clinton? Why is it that our current president drives you crazy

        You were talking about President Obama, who I think was your last President. What bothers me the most about liddle Donnie are his lies, his lack of empathy or morality, he’s bad for your country and the world, and I think he’s a bit nuts.

        Good thing that POS putting it on him dodged the draft 5 times or he might not be there to award it.

        I bet Sgt. Maj. Canley would have wished the Medal of Honor come two years earlier, so the one who helps him put on the medal would be the 8th best president in US history. Instead of the absolute disgrace ranking Xth of X (where X represents the total number of US presidents).

        Yo @realDonaldTrump: How does it feel? You dodged the draft and used Daddy's lawyers to stay out of service with flat feet. How does it feel to hold that symbol of bravery in your hand - when you are clearly a coward? How does it feel? How do you Drumpfers feel?

        It's just sad that it has taken 40+ years for this Sgt. to receive appropriate recognition for his actions.
