"Whatever we do, we must act with honesty and with integrity, and regardless of your chosen career, you're only as good as your word," Mueller told the graduates. "If you are not honest, your reputation will suffer, and once lost a good reputation can never, ever be regained." - NBC News

Robert Mueller III

Teamwork, sacrifice, discipline

• “Although seriously wounded during the fire­fight, he resolutely maintained his position and, ably directing the fire of his platoon, was instrumental in defeating the North Vietnamese Army force,” the Navy commendation read.
• "The lessons I learned as a Marine have stayed with me for more than 40 years," he told his granddaughter's class. "The value of teamwork, sacrifice, discipline — life lessons I could not have learned in quite the same way elsewhere." - NBC News

Donald Trump Is Nothing Like Robert Mueller

The absurdity of a man who avoided Vietnam due to “bone spurs” dancing on the grave of a decorated combat veteran. Robert Mueller III was a Bronze Star Marine veteran, an FBI director, and an American citizen. When the president of the United States heard the news that Mueller died today, he put it this way: “Good, I’m glad he’s dead.”

Mueller was honored for his service in Vietnam, and served presidents of both parties as the director of the nation’s top law-enforcement agency. Donald Trump, whose diagnosis of bone spurs kept him from being sent to that same war, has repeatedly denigrated the American war dead as “losers” and “suckers,” and has expressed disgust in the presence of wounded troops (“No one wants to see that, the wounded,” Trump once complained to the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff). - The Atlantic
