They always do that. So do the Democrats. It's traditional. Sort of like George Bush touting his Air National Guard experience against John Kerry's combat service in Vietnam, back in 2004.
Yeah, I know, but so far it's only been Republicans since I started watching.
That kind of goes back to the Civil War, when the Republicans were the party that preserved the Union and all that, before they were bought out by a combine led by Jim Fisk and Jay Gould.
