The Vets Against Kerry site has great summary quotes from the Congressional Record, et al.
"The Vets Against Kerry site has great summary quotes from the Congressional Record, et al."
It's a good site, but there are some mistakes.
For instance, the quote you are using from there about the shooting of the "baby" seems to be wrong--unless they have another source.
The only thing I can find near to it is this, from a Boston Globe article:
"But Kerry does recall a harrowing incident, which he has never previously publicly discussed, in which he said a crew member shot and killed a Vietnamese boy of perhaps 12 years of age.
A member of Kerry's crew announced he was shooting, and the air filled with the ack-ack-ack of gunfire. The rounds blasted into a sampan, hurling the child into the rice paddy. The mother screamed as the flimsy craft began to sink, and Kerry, shining a searchlight, yelled, "Cease fire! Cease fire!"
Kerry said his crew rescued the mother, took her aboard the Navy vessel for questioning, and left the child behind. Due to the dangerous location, and the possibility that the gunfire had drawn the notice of Viet Cong, Kerry never had a chance to see whether the woman was hiding weaponry in the sunken boat, and does not know to this day whether his crew faced a real threat.
"It is one of those terrible things, and I'll never forget, ever, the sight of that child," Kerry said. "But there was nothing that anybody could have done about it. It was the only instance of that happening."

You and they need to be more careful with their quotes and citations. These are serious charges and it is a very easy way to discredit yourself for a long time if you get it wrong.
