Letter: Are we sure Trump really had bone spurs?

(AP Photo/Alex Brandon) President Donald Trump speaks during a discussion for drug-free communities support programs, in the Roosevelt Room of the White House, Wednesday, Aug. 29, 2018, in Washington.

This week we honor Sen. John McCain. That said, I am curious about President Donald Trump’s exemption from military service because of bone spurs. It makes me wonder if we shouldn’t go back and have another look at the circumstances at that time. My wife tells the story of when her father was drafted during World War II. He told the doctor that he had sinus problems and flat feet. The doctor replied, “Not today.” Could the bone spurs be just another false statement from our commander in chief? It does make one wonder.
