"Trying to find fault in someone's war service is not honorable."
Vets are honorable to protect the integrity of their service by fighting for purity in the award system, and exposing the heroism hitchhikers. When one bases the strength of his attacks on fellow vets and the current military on his military record, it be idiotic not to take a simple look at that record.
Since some vets want to be cloaked by the rule of military disclosure about DD-214s and other orders, a swath of emptiness is all the sheep that vote for these people rely upon. Murtha has been one of those that slipped through like Kerry. No more.
