Do I take it from your tagline that you were only in Nam for six months? I don't mean to be rude, but I am confused.

I did 6 months on a DD, Destroyer, a standard tour.

Next time you question what I did ask Jim Rob

We met in Aug 2004

But if you had bothered to read my FR profile you'd know that.

And everything else.

I don't hide anything from anybody.

The USS Corry sailed from Norfolk in Aug'68 & returned Apr'69.

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. Much the same way as I would attempt to identify myself with the real Vietnam Army vets simply because I served in Panama from 69 - 72. Never once have I ever considered myself a Vietnam vet...nor do I have the right to do so!

TGYC is annoyingly tooting someone else's horn and quite frankly, I'm getting tired of it.
