"John Kerry is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life."
They are not real.
Ack! Kerry is such a squid. Even he's ashamed of his military records for crying out loud.
Who would ever believe Kerry was a hero? Sheeesh!

You mean before they panicked and hid it.
I dont know, questioning a wounded black vet is a capital offense
Yet MORE lies?
You better have rock hard proof before you go after this guy
The way I see it ... you need more evidence
" Was David Alston able to return to the PCF-94 during anytime between February 1 and March 13, Kerry's last combat mission?
No evidence that he did or even the suggestion he physically could have with the injury he had suffered, because we know that on February 28, 1969,
Fred Short was onboard and described as an replacement for a wounded David Alston."
From what I can tell, at this late hour, your timeline jibes with that listed in " John F Kerry, the Official Biography By The Boston Globe Reporters Who Know Him Best."
The quotes attributed to David Alston in the book are pretty boilerplate- no dates,no specifics, just generalized vouching.
Which may be the point.
I don't think the media or those vouching for Kerry thought anyone would bother to fact check.
In fact, Kranish does say at one point in the book-that Kerry's version of events, many times varies from his crew.
I'll find the exact reference tomorrow.
You would think that might have rung some bells in the head of an investigative journalist.
BE careful, before any accusations are made, be sure we have the facts well in hand. A slip up at this point could cause everything to be doubted.
That does sound like the actions of guys who served together in some capacity. We need to be careful with this one.

You may very well be correct but it would be a huge lie, sinking his crewmates credibility too, I would word it a little less certain for safety's sake an opinion not statement of fact until further proven, JMHO,
....summary of Kerry's missions at the kerry site shows no mission between 2/28 and 3/11 with combat, combat noted on 3/12 no mention of Kerry's boat...Rassman incident on 3/13,(I forget, how do you know he wasn't on the boat on 3/13?) and according to your quote on 2/28 Alston was still recovering from wounds..missing records needed..how about someone going to the National Archives and checking out all the reports, they would not be personal to Kerry...
Kerry is a freeking fraud and if he was a pubbie the press would be all over this crap !
Good train of thought. But, before it gets anywhere, it has to be rock solid, bulletproof. Eyewitness, national archive bulletproof.
Please look closely at the picture . . .
The crewmember on the left (without a shirt) has the sun hitting his face from the left and the shadow cast is to the right.
John Kerry (on the right) has the sun hitting his face from the right and the shadow cast to the left.
I am no expert, and maybe some of the photo savvy freepers can look closer. Is registered still around??
His "casualty" report, perhaps?
Anyway, great research, good eye for detail.
No. Not "clearly." But it's definitely a possibiity.
Still, if Alston was never a member of Kerry's crew, what was that photo all about?
Could it be that Kerry's camera and production crew are hiding behind journalistic immunity?
major bump
Can you spell "implosion" bump.
