- @Tordaddy: There is already a draft article about Herrera at Draft:Brandon Herrera. It might be better to work on that article rather than having 2 separate drafts. --John B123 (talk) 08:00, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

Military Service
I think we should bring back the Miliary service paragraph, the small note in the youtube section doesnt quite cover the history of the joke and make it clear as to why he was "awarded" military service medals. From my understanding, during his congressional campaign, his relationship with the military was mis characterized by his opponent in order to win, so something explaining that he is not in the military but has been given medals by fans who were is important.

- I agree that more context to the sentence I added would make it less abrupt, but I couldn't find any news articles that explicitly covered the backstory. The previous paragraph was also quite large and placed undue emphasis on a small part of Herrera's career. If you can find any sources on this (that aren't YouTube), that would be helpful.
