Did any of the other four officers write an after action report? If yes, are they available? If not, why not?
No-one liked to do paperwork after a hard day on patrol. So they were happy to have Kerry do it -- not knowing what he was up to.
"Did any of the other four officers write an after action report? If yes, are they available? If not, why not?"
Good question. I don't find an answer in the book for this specific event, but the other four officers were exhausted, so it seems likely that Kerry volunteered to write up the report and they said "OK."
From what I've read, it was common practice for only one of the skippers to write up the after-action report of multi-unit incidents.
As has always been the case in all branches of the service, honor and honesty on the part of the person submitting a report is expected. In kerry's case, that expectation wasn't met.
Any officer requesting to review a report written by a fellow officer would be viewed as questioning that fellow officer's integrity. In most cases, that review shouldn't have needed to happen; in kerry's case, it should have happened.
