"A full tour and four months into the next. This article is incorrect."
This seems to be a pattern with you, posting misinformation.
Kerry did not ever serve a full tour in Vietnam. His first tour was also short of the usual 12 months.
"December: Kerry begins his first tour of duty, serving on the guided-missile frigate USS Gridley.
June 6: Kerry's first tour ends as the Gridley returns home."

Better check his records. His first tour lasrted four months, aboard a ship at sea, never in country. His second trip also lasted four months.

Keep plugging Destrocrat. Kerry's first "tour" was afloat. No action. Why won't Kerry release his militrary records? Some basic facts need to come out: who put Kerry in for the Silver Star? Perhaps he is embarrassed that the award recommendation is in his own handwriting.
