‘You shouldn’t be calling yourself a Ranger’: Tom Cotton’s military service is under scrutiny from a fellow Army veteran in Congress | Business Insider

Republican Sen. Tom Cotton has become a hot topic after Salon published a story about his claims in his past congressional campaign advertisements. In his past congressional campaign advertisements, he claims that he is an Army Ranger, which implies soldiers who served with the 75^th Ranger Regiment. But according to the article, Cotton only earned a Ranger Tab. He attended US Army’s Ranger School, but never served with the 75^th Ranger Regiment.
