Kerry may be the only person in history who took advantage of a Navy regulation that allowed him to leave his command after 4 months for 3 purple hearts none of which ever caused him to miss a day of duty.

If Kerry were a Republican, the media would have done this research long ago. Interesting that we've never heard anything about this.

Nice post, BTW, thanks for this.

Um, no offense, but that's pretty ancient news. I doubt there's 1 in 10 people on this website who aren't aware of it. Has the media reported it? Frankly, I'd be surprised if even they haven't by now (although no doubt it was buried at the bottom of page A17 under an ad for frictionless toilet bowl seats)

Kerry's "Reporting for Duty" and using his 4 months in-country as the focal point of his presidential qulifications was a strategic mistake of the first order.

He knew what he did in 'Nam and more importantly so did a lot of other vets who he terminaly pissed off when he threw them all under the bus in his Senate testimony.

He assumed that the press would be able to inoculate him from the criticism. That was beyond risky. He should have low-keyed as 'nam service and made the fact that he wasn't George W. Bush the center of his campaign and put him on the defensive defending his Presidency.

Now Kerry has dug himself into a WWI trench and will ger shot at every time he sticks his head up.
