Kerry's Military Record
Unlike McCain, Bush, and Gore...Kerry has adamantly refused to authorize the release of his military records. Most think it's because of his phony battle medals. I think the real reason is below. He was not granted an Honorable Discharge until March 2001, almost 30 years after his ostensible service term had ended!
This is very much out of the ordinary, and highly suspect.
There are 5 classes of Discharge: Honorable, General, Other Than Honorable, Bad Conduct, and Dishonorable. My guess is that he was Discharged in the '70s, but not Honorably. He appealed this sometime while Clinton was doing trouser- tricks in the Oval Office. Political pressure was applied, and the Honorable Discharge was then granted.
His file is probably rife with reports of this, submissions and hearings on the appeal, reports of his "giving aid and comfort" to the enemy, along with protests that were filed with respect to his alleged valor under fire.
This will blow up in his face before October 15th.
On 18 Feb. 1966 John Kerry signed a 6 year enlistment contract with the Navy (plus a 6-month extension during wartime).
On 18 Feb. 1966 John Kerry also signed an Officer Candidate contract for 6 years -- 5 years of ACTIVE duty & ACTIVE Naval Reserves, and 1 year of inactive standby reserves (See items #4 & $5).
Because John Kerry was discharged from TOTAL ACTIVE DUTY of only 3 years and 18 days on 3 Jan. 1970, he was then required to attend 48 drills per year, and not more than 17 days active duty for training. Kerry was also subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Additionally, Kerry, as a commissioned officer, was prohibited from making adverse statements against his chain of command or statements against his country, especially during time of war. It is also interesting to note that Kerry did not obtain an honorable discharge until Mar. 12, 2001 even though his service obligation should have ended July 1, 1972.
Lt. John Kerry's letter of 21 Nov. 1969 asking for an early release from active US Navy duty falsely states "My current regular period of obligated service would be completed in December of this year."
On Jan. 3, 1970 Lt. John Kerry was transferred to the Naval Reserve Manpower Center in Bainridge, Maryland.
Where are Kerry's Performance Records for 2 years of obligated Ready Reserve, the 48 drills per year required and his 17 days of active duty per year training while Kerry was in the Ready Reserves? Have these records been released?
Has anyone ever talked to Kerry's Commanding Officer at the Naval Reserve Center where Kerry drilled?
On 1 July 1972 Lt. John Kerry was transferred to Standby Reserve - Inactive.
On 16 February 1978 Lt. John Kerry was discharged from US Naval Reserve.
Below are some of the crimes Lt. Kerry USNR committed as a Ready Reservist, while he was acting as a leader of Vietnam Veterans Against the War
1. Lt. Kerry attended many rallies where the Vietcong flag was displayed while our flag was desecrated, defiled, and mocked, thereby giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
2. Lt. Kerry was involved in a meeting that voted on assassinating members of the US Senate.
3. Lt. Kerry lied under oath against fellow soldiers before the US Senate about crimes committed in Vietnam.
4. Lt. Kerry professed to being a war criminal on national television, and condemned the military and the USA.
5. Lt. Kerry met with NVA and Vietcong communist leaders in Paris, in direct violation of the UCMJ and the U.S. Constitution.
Lt. Kerry by his own words & actions violated the UCMJ and the U.S. Code while serving as a Navy officer. Lt. Kerry stands in violation of Article 3, Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution. Lt. Kerry's 1970 meeting with NVA Communists in Paris is in direct violation of the UCMJ's Article
104 part 904, and U.S. Code 18 U.S.C. 953. That meeting, and Kerry's subsequent support of the communists while leading mass protests against our military in the year that followed, also place him in direct violation of our Constitution's Article 3, Section 3, which defines treason as "giving aid and comfort" to the enemy in time of warfare.
The Constitution's Fourteenth Amendment, Section 3, states, "No Person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President ... having previously taken an oath to support the Constitution of the United States, [who has] engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof."

This has always been the Kerry campaigns worse fear. This is why the Bush "AWOL" story was pushed so hard by the dems. Their purpose was to confuse the public about the issue by raising questions about Bush's service that were not legitimate. Now when legitimate questions are raised about Kerry it will only look like more of the same.
You will NEVER hear a word about Kerry's unsigned 180 in the MSM, and he will successfully ignore it until well after the election.
Then WHY don't they force him to take it off his site. I thought it was illegal to say you received something like this; why no charges????
bump
I don't know, but evidently Steve Nash does.
Beware the Ides of October
BUSH/CHENEY IN 2004
"Beware the ides of October."
Hmmm!!! Very Very Interesting...and he thinks after this conduct he could ever be president of the USA!!!! What a complete fool he is.

Ping.......................
Great minds.....:-)
Go get the Son of a Beeswax. He disgraced himself by lying about his comrade in arms. Good men were tortured and killed while he and Jane Fonda lied. He deserves everything that he gets.
That is a good point. Perhaps this entire CBS fiasco was originally intended to deflect damage certain to result by the revealing of Kerry's entire record. If it is the worst for Kerry, the dems must assume it has the potential of coming out. Who knows, perhaps the Friday before 2 November?
A FOIA request, which you yourself can file, only releases some military records. A SF-180 is required to release all military records.
What's sad is that only 14% of Republicans vote in primaries and we once again have Nancy Larraine Hoffman, the pro-choice maven, as our representative. I think only 43% of Americans vote and I bet Christians vote even less. WAKE UP, CONSERVATIVES AND CHRISTIANS! This is a battle we must win.
Huh??
Thanks for the ping.
If this all gets out, Kerry is in such trouble he'll be lucky if he's not put in jail.
Is that the date of the "October Surprise" that we hear about so often?
and then kick him one more time for good measure.
