Chances are it was a typo on the fact sheet presented by one of his aides,

Agreed. I don't see this as a big deal at all.

It is possible he signed up for enrollment in 2015, but they didn't find a spot for him until 2017.  My older son is currently waiting for a position to open up in the Air Force.

Even after all these years, I know what my service dates are.

And as recent as this was, I don't buy any excuse about forgetting, especially given the disparity in years.

But I suppose in this new era of common core, an odd number is the same as any other odd number.  Amirite?

How do you know it wasn't one of his aides that filed the info,and had a typo?

@SZonian

Ok,so he corrected the error,and now people are pissed BECAUSE he corrected the error?

WTF is the big freaking deal? Did he claim to have prevented a nuclear war while serving in 2017?

People make typos. Get over it.

BTW,I guess now is the time for me to come out of the poser closet and admit I didn't really serve 7 years in the US Army. I only served 6 years,10 months,and 7 days.

I guess you want to drag me around behind a car now?
