NOW THIS MAKES SENSE!!!! Kerry did throw his Medals over the White House fence, and probably ripped up his original citations . When he got elected during Reagans term, he asked the secratary of the Navy John Lehman to send him a new set as well as sign a new citation. On his web site, both his Bronze and Silver Star citations are signed by Lehman instead of John Chaffee, who was the Sec. of the Navy during Nixon.
