On June 20, Mike Rowe posted a letter to Facebook from a woman named Donna who attempted to shame the host of “Dirty Jobs” over his lack of military service.

Donna writes:

“Mr. Rowe, I was impressed by some of the things you’ve done in your life but that came to an end when I discovered that you apparently never volunteered to serve in your country’s military. Why is that?”

Well said, everyone.
