Frankly, this sounds like nitpicking nonsense.
What would be interesting is a valid copy of his DD-214 with the SPN.

I checked his web site. It says the V is with the Bronze one. Don't think this argument will fly. There is plenty out there, but not this.

Didn't Admiral Bourda commit SU-I-CIDE over this very issue?

There seems to be a 1 to 1 correlation between Kerry's deepening woes about his medals and the continued adding of former Clinton administration re-threads to his campaign staff. Quite remarkable that the bleeding is becoming more intensive when you considered what these spin doctors were able to accomplish during Clinton's 2 terms.
I think Kerry and MIA Edwards are being savaged from within as well as from without and Bill and Hill are surely at the center of Kerry's problems.

Illegal embellishment of a Silver Star isn't any big deal to the recipient of a Purple Heart awarded for self inflicted rice rash.

Embellished is such an ugly word......
How about LIES.....LIED....DID LIE...IS LYING...WILL LIE AGAIN.....
To his type there is no such thing as 'lying' because there is no such thing as 'truth'
there is only pragmatic speech....words are merely tools to 'further an end'
And the only sin is...'not getting what you want' or in Kerry's and the Clintonista's case...
And what they want... is Power....Raw Power....Absoulute Power.... Uber Alles Power.....

I couldnt get it to come up on my home computer last night, had to upgrade to Adobe 6.0 reader first.

I beg to differ. This is not Nitpicking. A combat V for Valor is a distinctive and notable award on a medal or ribbon.
It is not given out lightly and, if the story is correct, not awarded to silver stars.
Silver Stars are the 3rd or 4th highest precedent medals that can be given. A combat V is unnecessary on a silver star. It would be akin to giving a V to a Medal of Honor winner. The award itself already includes a valor in combat connotation.

To: Jet Jaguar
This is nitpicking. Furthermore, the citation is approved by a lot of folks above Kerry before it is issued. Whatever Kerry may have done, this "V" is not an issue and you/we/they should drop it.
To: Beckwith
I saw the pdf. If this is correct, it is correct. However, To the best of my knowledge, a V today is not authorized on a Silver star. I could be wrong.
