AI Summary:

Here is the accurate, evidence-based summary of military service within Donald Trump’s immediate and extended family:


Immediate Trump family​


  • Donald Trump himself did not serve in the U.S. military; during the Vietnam War he received multiple deferments while in school and a medical deferment for bone spurs.
  • None of Donald Trump’s children — Donald Jr., Ivanka, Eric, Tiffany, or Barron — have served in the U.S. armed forces.
  • Trump’s parents (Fred and Mary Trump) also did not serve.

So no immediate Trump family member has documented active military service.



Extended family/ancestors​


  • A commonly cited historical note (not always verified in authoritative records) is that an ancestor — Frederick Trump (Trump’s grandfather) — left Germany to avoid conscription, and thereby did not serve in the German military.
  • Some broader discussions (e.g., in third-party articles) mention that extended relatives may have contributed to defense efforts in civilian or technical roles (e.g., work related to wartime research), but not formal military service.


Summary​


Immediate and extended Trump family members have not served in the military. There is no verified record of Donald Trump’s children, parents, or spouses serving in the U.S. armed forces.

I don't agree. The point of a civilian CIC is to separate civil government from the military.

If it had to be one way or the other, I would prefer that military service would disqualify one from being CIC. In fact I prefer what we have now, but I'm more comfortable with presidents who are not part of the MIC having the last say.

CIC is over the military.

His grandfather Stanley Durham enlisted on January 18th, 1942, about a month after the Attack on Pearl Harbor. He served in the 1830th Ordnance Supply and Maintenance Company, Aviation in the European Theater. These are facts beyond question.


Obama has two grandfathers, as do most people. One was born in the USA, and lived here his entire life, except for when he served in Europe. The other never lived in the USA.


Again, it is beyond question two of his great uncle served in frontline American army units during WWII. Ralph Durham went from private to Lieutenant Colonel during and after the war. Charles Payne served in the 89th Infantry Division, and helped liberate one of the concentration camps.


When Obama was ten years old, he was sent back to the USA to live with his grandparents. He lived with them from ten to eighteen. His grandfather was a WWII veteran, and his grandmother had B-29 factory during the war.


Obama's paternal grandfather was born in the British Colony of Kenya. There were not many places in Africa who were not in a colony at the time. He served in the King's African Rifles during WWI.

Dunham enlisted as a private in the U.S. Army on January 18, 1942, at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, and served in the European Theatre of World War II with the 1830th Ordnance Supply and Maintenance Company, Aviation. During D-Day, this unit helped to support the Ninth Air Force. Dunham and his brother were deployed to France six weeks after D-Day. Before the Invasion of Normandy, the brothers once met accidentally as Stanley Dunham went in search of rations at a hotel in London, where his brother Ralph Dunham happened to be staying. Madelyn Dunham gave birth to their daughter Stanley Ann Dunham, who was later known as Ann, at St. Francis Hospital in Wichita on November 29, 1942. During the war, Madelyn Dunham worked on a Boeing B-29 assembly line in Wichita.
