“Can anyone confirm the rumor that he once served in Vietnam?”
Yeah he was there...
Long enough to put himself in for a Silver Star, get his political ticket punched, and and take advantage of the 3 Heart Rule by repeatedly stabbing his fingertip with his “John Wayne P-38 can opener” until a drop of blood came out.....
all in ~ 3 months while the rest did their 13 months.......
Oh yeah he also got to fulfill his JFK PT 109 fantacy......
How can you put yourself in for a SS?
