Does anyone happen to have the name of the guy that Kerry supposedly saved? Thanks.

Jim Rasman, or something like that. May need to correct the spelling.

Capt Tom was outflanked by the Times again - OK here is a short text version

In the chaos, Mr. Kerry turns the boat on a dime, races forward, pulls the soldier into the bow and steers to safety. As a result, he wins the Bronze Star with a combat "V" for valor and his third Purple Heart: a ticket home from Vietnam for good.

He never sees Rassmann again.

Until Saturday, Jan. 17, 2004, a day after Jim Rassmann, 56, a retired Los Angeles sheriff's deputy and orchid lover, awoke in Florence, Ore., and decided to contact Senator John Kerry's campaign. <
