I take a dim view of those who seek to denigrate JFK's actions during WWII. Compare that to the draft dodging Bill Clinton, and you'll see how far America has fallen.

Spot on. Kennedy, like Jimmy Stewart begged and pleaded to come on active duty and serve our Country during World War II. Stewart flew combat missions as a B-24 pilot stationed with the 8th in England. JFK displayed his leadership and devotion in saving the lives of all but two of his crew.
Unlike the scum we have elected President since then, JFK is one of the best...along with Truman, Reagan and Trump.
Thank you for your service as well!
My dad was in the Pacific. Didn’t see combat, but was part of the occupation force in Japan after the war.
One of my uncles was wounded at Guadalcanal, saw a lot of his buddies die. He recovered and was sent to Bougainville. Came home, raised a family and had a successful business, as did my Dad as well. Uncle Mike lived to be 101. They were both Army.
They were truly the Greatest Generation.
*If there’s one thing I learned during my 8 years on active duty, it’s that anything can happen when you’re in the field...*
Tell that to the parents of Ashlee Babbitt.
Like them or not, JFK and GHWB stepped up and served. At least they had some balls. Not so much other politicians.
