Uh, wasn't he an officer? That's different than "enlisting" - he was "commissioned"...
Born December 11, 1943 in Denver, Colorado, John Forbes Kerry...
Please don't hold this against our otherwise fine state!
I find it interesting that this "war hero" (fine - he earned medals while serving his short time in Vietnam) - turned traitor (those same medals (borrowed from another medal) were thrown back in the face of the government he earned them from) is finding ANY traction at all for his "veteran" status.
I don't know of any veterans that support him, and I know plenty...
