"Please do not ping me anymore. Thank you"

OK, Now please don't tell fibs about me. Thank You

Another "fib" by you about my home page

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1339524/posts?page=258#258

"What TGYC is attempting to do is identify himself with the true Swift Boat Vets via assimiliation simply because he "May" have helped service such boats while stationed on the Corry when they were deployed off the coast of Vietnam."

What my page ACTUALLY says

I was there the same time Kerry was.
I was there Oct'68-Apr'69 on the destroyer USS Corry DD-817

which sometime supplied PCF's and PBR's

and provided gunfire and gunfire support
in North AND South Viet Nam.

My ship may have even supplied
Kerry's boat in the Mekong Delta

Although there are many similarities between naval gunfire support
and Operation Sea Dragon (which ended Nov '68), they differ in two important areas:
naval gunfire support is normally fired at the request of troops ashore,
while Sea Dragon's mission is the interdiction of supplies and destruction
of military targets; and naval gunfire support is always conducted in South Vietnam,
while Sea Dragon missions are fired only above the demilitarized zone.

29 US Navy ships received gunfire from Viet Cong shore batteries.
My ship DID NOT get hit by the VC.

In Feb '69 my ship was part of Operation Bold Mariner
which was the largest amphibious assault since Korea.

I Said: ... he "May" have helped service such boats while stationed on the Corry when they were deployed off the coast of Vietnam."

You Said:

I hate to put it so bluntly to you but you were not WITH John Kerry, YOU DID NOT KNOW John Kerry, and the best you can do in ASSOCIATING YOURSELF WITH THE TRAITOR JOHN KERRY is to state you were on a boat that "MAY" have even supplied John Kerrys boat.

PLEASE, DO NOT PING ME ANYMORE ON THIS THREAD!!!!!!!!

Speaking of fibs and lies how about you cleaning up your own act by apologizing for Post #491.
