Hey Capt.,

You raised my curiousity...SOOOO....I just dug up BOTH my DD Form 214s. Yep...that's right! I've got TWO of the suckers!

I had a break in service in 1988, which is why I have TWO. I never really took a GOOD look at them, but BOTH of them have the SAME thing in "SPECIAL ADDITIONAL INFORMATION"...block 24. CHARACTER OF SERVICE (Include upgrades)....

HONORABLE

Now certainly Senator Kerry can produce HIS DD Form 214! :-) For certain his will also bear truth to his story!

By the way...It took me 30 minutes to find one of my 214s and I nearly went into PANIC mode. These aren't the types of things we want to lose! :-)

I think we should ride this issue like a horse that needs to be broken....until we either make so much noise that it's NOT ignorable by the media, OR we get to see his records.

It's laughable really....a man who aspires to be CINC of the most powerful nation on the planet, and he won't divulge his military records! Do you think that any sane "heavy" pilot would hand over control of the aircraft just because he "says" he can fly the thing? What if he had a KNOWN habit of flying aircraft into the ground?! We WANT to see his "pilot's certification", but I have a suspicion that it will tell us that he FAILED ground school after four months.

I just went thru MOST of my military records (30 inches worth of paper from nearly 13 years of service!) looking for this other DD Form 214, and I didn't see ANYTHING that I would mind divulging publicly.

Anybody running for a public office on the basis of military service should do the same!

JUST STOP ALREADY - Look at the pdf link AFPhys posted in 358.

Page two shows his awards and his honorable characterization of service after his release from active duty following his combat service.

He is an idiot and a scum and unfit for command. But lets read the documents before we post conclusions that the documents do not support.
