Lt. Gov. John Walsh (D-MT) has focused his campaign for the United States Senate on his record of public service, including four years as the Adjutant General of the Montana National Guard.

Walsh has led troops in Iraq and wants Montanans to know about his long record of military service when they reach the voting booth.

“Prior to becoming lieutenant governor I’ve served for 33 years in the Montana National Guard,” he said in an interview with MTN News on December 16th. “So basically my entire adult life has been involved with public service.”

But an August 2010 report from the Inspector General of the U.S. Army, obtained by MTN News, says that Walsh improperly used his position in the Guard for his own gain.
