EXCERPT:

REPORTER: “And your military background?”

WALZ: “I spent 24 years in the National Guard, some of that full-time. I was an artilleryman. I deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. My battalion provided base security throughout the European theater from Turkey to England in the early stages of the war in Afghanistan, and that same battalion is now in Iraq at this time.”
