I’m going to need some context on that thought. A skim of his wiki doesn’t mention mass firings or veteran’s issues. Truman served and saw combat in WWI as an artillery captain. As president he desegregated the army and dropped nukes on Japan. He also oversaw the Berlin airlift and part of the Korean war of 1950-1953.

They may be referring to the fact that by ending WW2 Truman cost all of the fighters their jobs? I’m hoping the comment was tongue-in-cheek.
The US military was reduced by 10.5 million people due to the end of WW2.
That’s not firing a veteran, that’s creating one
