Actually after all these documents are released then it will be time for the GOP to ask for Kerry's record in kind....Like medical records that secured for him three purple hearts and sent him home early....;^)

It is Kerry's Silver Star that is the real unanswered question. Vets are suspicious. Very few Silver Stars were awarded and they require a CO's authentication, usually by direct observation. The suspicion is that Kerry authenticated himself and put his crew in for Bronze Stars as a bribe.

I have heard a lot of stories about PHs in Vietnam. There were lots of them. One career officer pilot in the Navy told me in 1972 that his was awarded because something he did made his CO look better than he was. The flier had no wound and did not even come under fire on the mission for which it was awarded.

Every vet I have spoken with about this thinks Kerry is a phony.
