Trump avoided military service but attacks those who did serve. Shame on him.

Letter: Trump’s military record speaks for itself
By John Dwan, July 30, 2016

As a retired 30-year Marine Corps reservist who made four trips to Asia as a Marine but missed combat by two weeks, I want my fellow Utah veterans to know that Donald Trump applied for and received five military draft deferments, thereby avoiding any military service.

And now he wants to be commander in chief. A basic rule of American military service is that we are not obligated to obey any illegal order, yet he has said he would issue them, such as torturing prisoners and killing the enemies' families.

His military record and knowledge stands for itself.
