In 2004, Kerry released documentation for all his 3, dubious, Purple Heart medals, which he used as justification to leave Vietnam very early.

What Kerry made public was incomplete and insufficient. I and few others here found he tried to duplicate and obscure one of his Purple Hearts.

John Kerry’s records - they’re stored right next to Pres 0bama’s school records, and his birth certificate.

Didn’t he write the citation for his Silver Star himself?

It’s amazing how their military record was crucial in 2004 . Shouldn’t we have seen President McCain in 2008?

McCain didn't tout his military service as his prime qualification, like John F'n ("Reporting For Duty") Kerry did.

Also, nobody was able to cast doubts on McCain's time spent as a POW, as the Swift Boat Veterans could easily do regarding "Bandaid John" Kerry's questionable wartime resume.

I had all the military records and official after-action reports and testimonials from his - from firsthand witnesses and the like.

Interesting (and revealing) slip of the tongue. "His" witnesses.

John Kerry DID ‘release’ his military records... by that I mean he let one friendly reporter look at them.

So he fullfilled his promise (at least that’s what passes as truth for democrats )

After all, John Kerry has done a lot of good and so the end justifies the means.

That is what they are really thinking.

The problem with conservatives is that we don’t pursure our enemies to set history “straight” from our point of view like the liars on the left do.

We don’t even repeat the history of socialism/Marxism and pursue commies so people are forewarned of it’s agenda, lies and manipulation.

If you listened to the “mainstream” you would learn and the only evil monster of history was “fascist” “Christian” Hitler - who was a socialist and occultist. You know no details of what Stalin and Mao did and their nutty rationales which are prevelant today in academia. They were atheists and cultural cleansing like we see leftists doing today, is a big part of their game - along with murdering a few million innocent people. We don’t even mention that NK is communist and we don’t attach the reality of his prision camps to the ideology of communism’s history.

And then there is china. You would think China is a workers’ paradise from the squaking of the mainstream. People have no idea how evil the ruling class and system is in china. They don’t know about the evil of eugenics and the American left’s history in that ball of wax.

I think his CO let him write it 'cuz he wanted kerry the hell outa' there ASAP.

I believe he also wrote himself up for his "purple hurts" as well, score three and your home free...

If Kerry were USNR (Reserve Officer) at the time, his designator would end in a “5” and not a “0” (1115 vice 1110). Active Duty officer designators end in zero. Minor detail that would have made the fake document look more authentic.

I should not do this - one martini down on an empty stomach.
I’m a Floridian and ex-river rat (TC monitors, etc. diverted to Ft. Sherman, Panama). I would have liasoned with Kerry’s units.

Visited Arlington National Cemetary on 4Dec12, intending to visit Tomb of the Unknowns, Pershing’s grave, etc. - carrying my luggage because I refused to pay $20/bag to check @ Amtrak station (BTW Biden doesn’t have this problem).

I asked the man behind the National Park desk what restriction I should expect, and if I had to drop off my bags. He (demeanor of E-7 or above) said I should just be courteous and respectful.

I said that was not a problem as Kerry was not yet buried here, and I didn’t feel as strongly about Ted Kennedy. He squinted, screwed his face up, paused a few seconds, and then laughed. Said it wasn’t a problem sir, we’ll see when you get back.

Three purple hearts and not a single day in a military hospital.

That's all I needed to know about John Kerry's military awards.
