He returned to the US a bitter opponent of the war and was released from the army early.

Not so. According to other accounts he did not turn against the war until several months after he returned--a calculated political decision.

Research Kerrys speech to his class before he went to Nam.....he was a foe of the war before he went....he only did it to help his political career.

I thought I read somewhere that he gave a speech against the war in 1966---*before* he enlisted?? I also recall reading he flew someone to anti-war rallies while he was still in the Navy?
