I am glad to see that others are finally reaching the conclusion I reached months ago, the only thing that explains Kerry's continuing refusal to be honest with America is that his military records hide some terrible, terible stain. That could only be a discharge under other than honorable conditions. On what charges? We don't know yet, but treason, homosexual activity, drugs or comporting with an enemy woman seem most likely. Carter pardonded Kerry in 1977 and, after administrative papers, Kerry got his records revised in 1978 and got an honorable discharge. His prior wife, Julia, knows what happened as does her brother, David Thorne. In fact, Kerry's USNR disgrace may have been the gounds of her action in the post-annullment agreement. Maybe, that's why we may never know whether they split because he is a wife beater or a traitor.

But, again, even with more mendacity, Kerry lying every day about "integrity" while being dishonest about his background, there may be evidence available. If Kerry was pardoned by Carter, some public record must exist in the Office of the Pardon Attorney, Dept. of Justice, Washington (see DoJ site for details) and should be available in the public reading room or by FOIA request. Alas, no one in the left wing media would think of asking.

When the Navy learned that Kerry had met with the NVA/VC in Paris, I would wager that an officer was assigned to conduct an Article 32 investigation to determine if Kerry had violated one or more provisions of the UCMJ. The results of this investigation would have been used as a basis for taking administrative or disciplinary action. My theory is that Kerry accepted an Article 15 or was given a letter of reprimand and that his security clearance was revoked. In addition to other documents, I would be looking for a copy of the Article 32 and/or the officer who conducted the investigation.
