I served as a Foreign Service officer in the American embassy in Saigon from March 1968 to February 1970 and subsequently at the American embassy in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, from 1970 to 1972.     

My job in the political section of our embassy in Saigon was to be the "Cambodia Man." My principal tasks were to follow border incidents involving U.S. forces along the Cambodian border.

Yeah... but did he serve on the same BOAT as Kerry...?!? < /sarcasm>

" Finally, concerning the assertion that Mr. Kerry was shot at by the Khmer Rouge during his Christmas 1968 visit to Cambodia, it should be noted that the Khmer Rouge didn't take the field until the Easter Offensive of 1972, when the Vietnamese forces that had attacked the Cambodians initially in March 1970 pulled out of Cambodia to attack the U.S. and Vietnamese forces in Vietnam. Only Vietnamese Communist soldiers were found on the battlefields of Cambodia in 1970-72. "

How will the Kerry campaign explain this away? LOL

[Presto]

No one seems to have noticed that Kerry’s lie about Cambodia amounts to slander against a U.S. President. Specifically when Kerry was in Vietnam, President Johnson was his Commander in Chief. That’s right folks! Kerry has been caught slandering his very own Commander in Chief.
I’m pushing for Kerry’s new nick name: The Cambodian Candidate.
You heard it hear first.

If we can get a name like that to stick, it’s all over for John Kerry. In fact, all that’s necessary is to get Sean Hannity to start using it.

The public loves a catchy nickname – especially one with the ineluctable ring of truth.

Start using it.

How could John Kerry? is the question. By 1971, Mr. Kerry was a leader in a group of disaffected veterans deeply involved in opposition to the war. He would certainly have deep knowledge of the various "liberation armies" he was sympathetic to.

Khmer Rouge in 1968, indeed. LOL!

The latest John Kerry/Douglas Brinkley position is that Kerry was ferrying weapons to CIA assets in Cambodia during January and Febuary. That this is in John Kerry's journals that Brinkley has access to. True or false? We shall see.

…but that was the only river incident involving the Cambodian border or Navy actions inside Cambodia to my recollection.

GMTA :)

This little fact is hard to argue away, that there were no Khmer Rouge there until years AFTER Kerry left.
