There is indeed a Steven Michael Gardner on that page.

But he was there April 1966 to March 1967, two years before Kerry. I thought that thee guy on Savage claims to have served with Kerry.

Gardener gave the dates of his service on the Savage show today. There were two periods of service. One was with Kerry (1969?).

This from the Swiftboat Veterans Against Kerry website:

"My name is Steve Gardner. I served in 1966 and 1967 on my first tour of duty in Vietnam on Swift boats, and I did my second tour in '68 and '69, involved with John Kerry in the last 2 1/2 months of my tour. The John Kerry that I know is not the John Kerry that everybody else is portraying. I served alongside him and behind him, five feet away from him in a gun tub, and watched as he made indecisive moves with our boat, put our boats in jeopardy, put our crews in jeopardy... if a man like that can't handle that 6-man crew boat, how can you expect him to be our Commander-in-Chief?"
