Something I've wanted to chime in on this whole matter:

Based on what little I know about swift boat operations (the close proximity they operate together) and the operational pictures I've seen (http://brownwater-navy.com/vietnam/BoatsSwift.htm for example), saying the swift boat veterans weren't "with" Kerry because they weren't "on" the same boat, is like saying that as a grunt, I wasn't "with" my platoon leader because I was "in" a different squad!

Contrary to their assertions that these vets were not on Kerry's boat, these dem pundits always omit the fact that Kerry's gunner, Steve Gardner, WAS on Kerry's boat.

...I wasn't "with" my platoon leader because was "in" a different squad! I wasn't in his jeep.
