Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) ART. 107.
FALSE STATEMENTS
Any person subject to this chapter who, with intent to deceive, signs any false record, return, regulation, order, or other official document, knowing it to be false, or makes any other false official statement knowing it to be false, shall be punished as a court-martial may direct. --end--
==============================================
John Kerry received medals in Vietnam. They are in the official records. George Elliot signed at least one of them. Here is the problem. Elliot signed off because he trusted the honor of the officer submitting the report. Who was that officer? Why, it was John Kerry himself.
Kerry needs to file his 180 so that we can see the entire record. Douglas Brinkley must release Kerry's notes.
This is at the heart of the entire controversy. I suspect that a full investigation will reveal that John Kerry filed false reports to receive at least one, maybe more, of his medals. Come on, John. Bring it on.
Fat Chance.
I know, but maybe we can help our friends in the media advance this.
I think the SwiftVets should give us results of lie detector tests and challenge Kerry and his supporters to do the same.
I don't know how to post new articles (threads) but the news story at the link shown, needs to be spread. More "lies for glory".

From the questioning of the medals, we go to the questioning of false reports. Then to his lying testimony. Then to men who were tortured while the commies were using Kerry's words. Then to his place of honor in the commie museum.
Kerry is as unique as Benedict Arnold. He is a hero on boths sides of a war. Quite an accomplishment.
Americans are going to realize before November that a traitor has been brought forward as the RAT candidate for president.
i agree, but who is going to replace him??? i smell a torch!!
He says he "requested and was given a discharge" in 1970. Nonsense! He had a six year obligation. The most the Navy would have given an officer in good standing was a transfer to inactive reserve. So, there is something fishy about his first termination, if it was really a ternination and not a suspension (whatever it is called in the USN).
But, why did he re-up in 1972? He didn't, it was an involuntary recall to face charges. He was courtmartialed one or more times and finally, finally discharged in 1978.
Kerry wants us to see only the 16 weeks he was in country and not the others years that prove he is unfit for any job but gigilo.
What happened from 1972 to 1978 and why aren't those records public?
Laudable but quixotic. This would seem to fall under UCMJ Article 43 (Statute of Limitations).
Under what articles of the UCMJ is one charged with war crimes, or giving aid and comfort to the enemy?

For example, the fabled and distinguished chief of naval operations (CNO), Admiral Elmo Zumwalt, told me -- 30 years ago when he was still CNO -- that during his own command of US naval forces in Vietnam, just prior to his anointment as CNO, young Kerry had created great problems for him and the other top brass, by killing so many non-combatant civilians and going after other non-military targets.
"We had virtually to straight-jacket him to keep him under control," the admiral said. "Bud" Zumwalt got it right when he assessed Kerry as having large ambitions -- but promised that his career in Vietnam would haunt him if he were ever on the national stage.
From We had virtually to straight-jacket [Kerry] to keep him under control (Admiral Zumwalt on Kerry)
I'd say there's likely a lot in his past he doesn't want known, including the above.
I know. But let's keep the pressure up so that we finally get ALL of the records.
I'd like your opinion on this.

I think this would be the final blow to Kerry's campaign. Follow the links to General Giap's statement.
I put up a piece about Benedict Arnold the other day. Kerry has several things in common with him, the most interesting of which is that both men were heroes for both sides in their war. Kerry has a problem from which he cannot recover when they do the commercial of his place of honor in the commie museum.
All Americans need to know we had North Vietnam beat and walked off abandoning millions to the communists in part due to Kerry's anti-war activities that helped demoralize the country. Most still believe we lost the war. We didn't.
Be very grateful I'm not king of the world. For if I were, Dan Rather, Tom Brokejaw, Petah Jennings, and the entire staff of the Washington Post and New York Times would be in front of a tribunal tonight, and their severed heads would be on pikes along Constitution Avenue tomorrow.
Maybe something will dribble out of it, who knows????
No statute, however, on "WAR CRIMES"!!
I myself think that John Kerry would look good in the dock at the International Court in the Hague or in Spandau prison.
