Additionally, during his three year active enlisted stint he rose to the rank of GYSGT and was a Boot Camp Drill Instructor. How does one do all that in a mere three years?!
I understand promotions could be earned faster back in the day but Sheesh! Then there is a big black hole during his Post Viet nam Reserve career. Not a single award, accomplishment or deployment until his retirement DSM(kiss) in 1990. Somethin stinks.......
I wonder who was pulling the strings for Murtha helping him get these bogus awards and promotions for his future political career? It was the Forbes family that pulled strings for John Effing Kerry. Who was string pulling for Murtha? He's obviously nothing but a fraud consdering all the evidence now coming out against him. Up until the past couple weeks, I thought he was just a traitor who forgot what it meant to serve in the military for love of country. Now it's clear Murtha is a fraud and a criminal who avoided indictment by he skin of his teeth, and he claims medals he has no right to claim.
