Retired Rear Adm. William L. Schachte Jr. has come forward to dispute John Kerry's contention that his first Purple Heart resulted from enemy fire.
Schachte, who spoke to columnist Robert Novak, says he was in command of the small boat, a "skimmer," when the incident occurred on Kerry's first combat mission.

Get ready for Satan's Daughter (the Toricelli move).
Blub. Blub. Blub. That is a SwiftBoat sinking with Kerry as the captain. He is starting to make Dukakis look good in comparison. I believe this Viet Nam issue will turn a solid Bush victory into a Reaganesque rout.
Where has this guy been all this time? Get him in a SBVT ad.
Right, and check out this:
Vietnam veteran-turned-military analyst Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney said Thursday that John Kerry's 1971 testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee portraying Vietnam soldiers as "monsters" would have been consider ground for treason charges in an earlier day.
"There is deep, deep anger for a man who, if he had done this during World War II, would have been tried for treason," McInerney told ABC Radio's John Batchelor.
Noting that two of his brothers also served in Vietnam, where one died, McInerney said, "He betrayed us . . . He betrayed not only my personal family but my [West Point] classmates and all the veterans that were over there."
Referring to the portion of Kerry's testimony where he accused his fellow soldiers of routinely committing barbaric acts on Vietnamese civilians, McInerney told Batchelor, "We did not do those things that he claimed that we did."
Blub, blub, blub ..........

Thank you. There are many holes in the Kerry tub now. I enjoyed the latest from Secretary of the Navy Lehman, wondering about the Silver Star citation (denying he wrote it). Things are either getting more mysterious or more obvious.
Our soldiers won a complete victory in Viet Nam and yet the politicians turned it into a defeat. It was not. Our soldiers fought bravely and well.
Kerry is an absolute chicken $hit. 'UNFIT FOR COMMAND' is the very title to the account of the self confessed war criminal.
Jacov, it's pretty unreal; ain't it? John Kerry is a traitor, and he has has been since 1971.
If you don't know real stuff; don't say what you think. FACTS only.
