I have to say I think I've uncovered an interesting descrepency, which I posted about on this other thread:
Veterans and the Kerry Controversy [Vets Question His Record]
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1083499/posts?page=9 And that is: Kerry got a Purple Heart for a wound he received his SECOND DAY in Vietnam.
And yet the Swift boat mission was not changed until he had been in Vietnam for TWO WEEKS. Up until then it was considered one of the safest assignments.
So how was Kerry wounded on his second day in Vietnam?
