In the ad, JK says ," I gave back, I don't know, 6..7..8..9 medals".
I thought he only got 5 ( the 3 purple bandaids, the silver star, and one other).
What a crock !

"
I agree its not as effective as the first 2 but its all in the timing," I don't know...considering the media downplayed the initial medal controversy this puts it in absolute terms....Kerry's own words. It's short and lays out "why" Kerry really isn't proud of his military service and how he dishonored those who served with him.

I thought he only got 5 ( the 3 purple bandaids, the silver star, and one other). According to his DD-214, there are 9 total including: National Defense Service, Vietnam Service, Vietnam Campaign, Combat Action ribbon.
It looks like there are 4 more more listed on his DD-215.

I see someone else was going where I was! GOOD!
He says he gave back 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9...
Well, how many did he "earn", according to the DD-214/DD-215?
So, he "gave back" all of them! But they weren't his - so, who's were they?
