Yeah....some of its info is out of wack.

But hey, still an interesting site.

As for the original post....will have to digest the info.

They were pictured together....hard to imagine them not serving together due to this fact. Why would they "stage" a picture?

You seem to forget that the pic that started it all was officers who, by the new definition of the DNC, did not "serve" with Kerry, because they were on different boats.

So the pic makes perfect sense. They may have met. Maybe even had a few beers together. But, unless they were on the same boat, at the same time, under fire, they never "served" together by the Kerry definition.

Good morning.
Staging pictures is common for young military types. I am on the cover of Gary D. Ford's excellent book "4/4: A LRP's Narrative". The picture is of Gary's LRP team either getting ready to go on a mission or just coming in. I was on a different team, from a different platoon, but Gary and I were friends and my team was also going out or coming in so there I was. Profile pictures are common. Kerry's people must be on the verge of panic.
I don't think I have ever watched a campaign implode like this.

While attending a Navy electronics school, I and a friend who was in a class ahead of mine in the same school used to socialize with a sailor who was stationed on a tugboat in the harbor. I don't have any pictures of us together but I remember some being taken by a young woman who went on a couple of dates with one of the other two guys, there may be other pictures that I don't recall. Anyone seeing these pictures now could easily conclude that we were stationed together. We were even referred to sometimes as "The Three Musketeers". Our only real connection was that we were all three from the Carolinas.
