Midnight in South Vietnam, and the river is black. Past the rice paddies and shacks, small fires are burning by the shoreline as Lt. John H. Davis' 50-foot aluminum swift boat — PCF 19 — makes its routine patrol through the reeds. In a split second, rocket fire shatters the silence, and through a plume of oily smoke, the boat sinks to the river's bottom. "My whole crew lost their lives that night. I was the only one who survived," Lt. Davis says.

I just received a phone call from the dims asking me if I would support Kerry. The answer was I am a Viet Nam vet goodbye. Support the SBVT's.

That's a great read. I can't believe McCain hasn't helped Bush more... I bet his comrades are a little upset at him over that.
In any event, that article makes my blood boil... I can't even imagine the thought of president Kerry... Good lord it hurts to write...
I never thought I'd say this, but I would rather have Hillary win than Kerry... He might be the only person in politics about whom that can be said.
She is a con-artist and an opportunist - he is a traitor.
Don't try to get around the excerpt by posting the article as a reply
She is as bad a (if not a worse) traitor than he is---she's just better at covering it up.
bumping to the top
Maybe Hillary's got their FBI files.
I know of no Military person past or present that supports Kerry. But he does have the support of un-american, what did America ever do for for me Vet's.
Just donated $25 to the Swiftboat Vets. Got to help for the last big push until election day. Parley.
I just saw the Swift Boat ad with the former POWs speaking out against Kerry, sharing how Kerry gave the enemy for free what the POWs were tortured for: confessions that they'd committed atrocities.
Powerful.

PC-OFF: Not all Vietnam Vets are honorable.
PC-ON: I was in during Vietnam with a lot of draftees that hated the military and it was kinda like Kelley's Heroes with them. They did drugs, screwed off, and disrupted operations.
Do the swiftvets take paypal? I got some extra Ebay cash I wanna send to the best campaigners in this battle.
bttt
Of course I have seen all the PC movies about this period and realize that you may be brainwashed by the terrible atrocities committed by the our troops.
The only service that would of hated the military was the Army because that was the service that had to draft~
for later
Terrorism is just a nuisance, like an old hooker.
McCain is in the same club with Kerry, Hagel, and Lugar. And isn't it amazing that records indicate that all were active duty military at one time in their life. I can understand the Massachusetts voting for Kerry. But the good people of Arizona, Indiana and Nebraska continue to get snookered every time they reelect their Rino senators.
