Since Kerry made sure everyone knew of his Kennedy connection you can be sure there is no really negative stuff out there on him.

My uncle was on the "canal" for four months with 7th Marines. He told me in '63 that the PT-109 tale was all B/s, that no highly mobile boat could run in front of a destroyer unless the crew was asleep.

Years later, I told a friend who had been on the Yorktown, and he said that Bull Halsey wanted an Inquiry but was threatened to keep his mouth shut. He was told that Kennedy was connected!

I grew up on military bases, then volunteered myself in '65. Everybody knew to be careful with the 'money boys'!
