Yes he did. And then over the years, we let the military fall into disrepair. I don't blame people who don't volunteer especially when we witnessed Vietnam vets being treated like trash by a bunch of hippie jackass types. I don't blame people not wanting to go to the Middle East where we are trying to help a regime that will never stand on its' own.
I sincerely just don't like people criticizing Trump for being just as cowardly about not serving. I don't see anyone other than Kirsten Gillibrand having served that now want to be CIC.
