To the editor:
President Trump has reached a new low. He and his stalwarts have questioned the loyalty of Army Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, the National Security Council’s top Ukraine expert, who gave his deposition to the House committees conducting an impeachment inquiry.
Vindman’s incredible history of patriotism mirrors my father’s, who like Vindman came to the U.S. from Ukraine. He arrived here as a teenager and went on to serve in the U.S. Army’s 3rd Infantry Division. He fought in major battles and was temporarily blinded from mustard gas.
My father died at age 56 from a heart condition he acquired in the service. He didn’t get to grow old with his wife or see his grandchildren because he gave his life for this country.
By questioning Vindman’s loyalty, Trump offended families like mine and once again brought shame to our country. We will remember this when we cast our ballots.
