4 bronze stars - one for each month.

That's not how they're awarded. See my previous post.

My comment was meant to make fun of the notion that [according to Kerry] his 4 months on the swift boats is all that mattered.

Out processing (many days if not weeks)..This piker probably didnt spent but 40-50 days ( with fewer missions!)in actual combat situations/exposure!!!...and I wouldnt doubt that this SOB got an R and R thrown in there somewhere too!!!!...Something for somebody smarter then me to check out those facts though!
