Wasn't Kerry an assistant D.A. somewhere in MA. between the years 1972 and 1978? If so, wouldn't he have had to claimed or checked a box on his employment application what status he had currently or type of discharge from the military?
It seems that Kerry was a First Assistant District Attorney in the office of the District Attorney of Middlesex County from January 1977 until 1979.
Do any Massachusetts Freepers know if such employment applications are available to the public?
He earned NO acedemic acheivements. He was promoted to management within a month of receiving his license to practice law by his boss, who probably needed Kerry's political clout to win reelection. He only ever prosecuted TWO actual cases in his career. Anyone who gets the type of preferential treatment Kerry got has been well insulated by the good ol' boy network of power families.
