"The bottom line is that Kerry could have remained but he chose to seek an early transfer." My understanding is that one of the wounds caused him to miss two days duty and the other two were mere scratches. So he requested and received a return to the states after only 4 months in-country. I'd be willing to bet he wrote himself up for the Silver Star as did LBJ. I hope this crap comes out before November. I served 12 months in Vietnam which is 33% more than Gore and Kerry combined.

Kerry declined a request from the Globe to sign a waiver authorizing the release of military documents that are covered under the Privacy Act and that might shed more light on the extent of the treatment Kerry needed as a result of the wounds.
