Not according to what I am reading. I printed out copies. What are the significant differences?

I disagree:

The words are the same, but every sentence is different. every phrase is different.

The second "award" has been completely rewritten, but was clearly copied from the first.

But, while copied from the first, it was SIGNIFICANTLY "enhanced":

Compare the last two sentences:

From the first award, itself being written many years AFTER he left Vietnam!

"His actions were in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service."

(Yawn....)

Now, immediately ABOVE Lehman's signature ten years later, when Kerry was routinely running for office (and apparently trying to impress HIMSELF): "By his brave action, bold initiative, and unwavering devotion to duty, Lieutenant (jg) Kerry reflected great credit upon himself and upheld the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service."

(WAHOO! Stand up! Take notice! Salute the flag!)
