Garnder isn't black the last I saw
IMO .. the photo is NOT doctored .. however it is very possible the photo was taken before Kerry took over the boat
I'll take it at face value that Gardner is white. It's just a very strange expression for a white guy. I think that it why I assumed it was a black crewmember.
Of all the people that served on boats with Kerry, Gardner was by far the most experienced.
Sandusky is the one I expect to crack first.
