I'm confused. Are you talking about the Bronze Star incident or the Silver Star? There was no exploding mine in the Silver Star incident. I find it incredulous that Vietnamese witnesses could be found who remembered this incident more than 35 years ago.
I made a mistake. ABC seems to be focusing on the Silver Star incident.
Of course the VC will remember this ONE incident. It was the ONLY mine that ever went off in the river and hit a swiftboat.
And not only will ABC's inscrutable oriental remember the incident, he will remember John Kerry specifically. Don't all you Vietnam vets remember the names of the VC you shot at?
And they found them so quickly too! Of course, they'll say ala rathergate that they have been working on it for five years...
