Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz faced fresh allegations of “stolen valor” Wednesday, with accusations that Vice President Kamala Harris’ running mate embellished his military service record.

Walz’s record was disputed by the Minnesota National Guard, which claimed Wednesday he did not hold the rank of command sergeant major at the time of his retirement in 2005, something that is listed on his official gubernatorial biography. Instead, the Minnesota National Guard said the governor retired as a master sergeant “because he did not complete additional coursework at the U.S. Army Sergeants Major Academy,” Newsweek reported.

The allegations were buttressed Wednesday on Newsmax by retired Army Command Sgt. Maj. Thomas Behrends. Behrends, who served with Walz in the Minnesota National Guard, voiced concerns about Walz’s military record during an appearance on “Rob Schmitt Tonight.”
