I wondered about this myself.

Where are Kerry's original discharge papers?

Getting a discharge in 2001 is awfully odd.

My understanding is that Bill Clinton intervened to help with his 2001 up graded discharge. These stories have surfaced before.

It does sound a lot like the timeline, when a former service member has their discharge classification upgraded. That means the discharge was upgraded from bad conduct to general discharge (at the convenience of the service) or honorable. It could also mean upgrading a general discharge to honorable.

how come he has a honorable discharge certificate on his website? Dated 1978?

The media is totally SILENT on Kerry's military records, aren't they? Not a PEEP!

Bush signed the standard form 180 to release his military records, but Kerry has NOT. Yet he's TELLING everyone that he HAS released them.

I guess if you keep telling the lie, people will believe it .....

Precisely why I think that question NEEDS to be asked during the debates, especially when the Kerry camp has thwon so many allegations toward Bush's Guard service.

That should be thrown...

RE Kerry discharge:
I served in U S Air Force as a pilot in 1954 to 1957 on a total of 8 yearws commitment bud did not get my discharge until 1970. They chose not to discharge my 8 year commitment until 1970 for a total of about 16+ years.

I got an honorable discharge in 1970.
Why did Kerry get an early discharge from reserve unless he received a less than Honorable discharg.

Why did they wait until Clinton got all the FBI files to give Kerry an honorable discharge.

Why did they give him a less than honaorable discharge while he was meeting with Viet Cong representative in Paris as well as falsely alleging that all of our GIs were commiting atrocites in Viet Nam??

You have to connect the dots on this posting!!
