I bet Kerry has more medals than some of the prisoners of war.

Galanti's military decorations include the Silver Star, Two Legions of Merit for combat, the Meritorious Service Medal, the Bronze Star for combat, nine Air Medals, the Navy Commendation Medal for combat and two Purple Hearts.

Viet Nam POW's

There is a nice bio at the link.

According to the Kerry campaign, this man is more qualified to be president than little Johnny!

Wow! A real American hero!

But what if Kerry had stayed in Vietnam for a full tour? At the rate he was going he could have put himself in for 100's of medals. /sarcasm off
