What DELAYED Kerry's Discharge for Six Years?

They had to find him first? The coward was probably AWOL.

Kerry simply changed his address and didn't notify DOD about it. In pre computer days it wasn't all that easy to track someone down.

I'd notified DOD of an address change just a few weeks before getting my final discharge (after 6 years of obligation), but they used my old address, and the piece had to be forwarded.

The letter carrier who marked up the piece ran a ballpoint pen through the glassine window and defaced my discharge.

This was done on purpose by someone who didn't like veterans of that period.

I had him fired!
