President Joe Biden celebrated Veterans Day on Friday by falsely praising his Climate Envoy John Kerry as one of the most decorated men to fight for America.
“I want to thank one proud American veteran, a lifelong public servant, a dear friend, and literally one of the most decorated men to fight, Special Envoy for Climate John Kerry,” Biden said.
The president spoke about veterans and John Kerry during his speech at the climate summit in Egypt.
Kerry, who served in Vietnam, was awarded a Bronze Star, a Silver Star, and three Purple Hearts, but is not even on the list of the top 50 most decorated veterans.
Kerry’s service medals were the subject of a controversy in 2004 when he ran for president against George W. Bush.

I think it was tea and biscuits.
if you added up all the time he’s said “When i was in Vietnam” it would add up to more time than he spent incountry...
Another excellent choice, his biography is also incredible. I visited his grave while a Arlington a few years ago, very humbling experience. He was the real deal, including his MoH.
While Colonel Hackwork was never a MoH recipient, he does hold the record for the SS, receiving 10 in addition to 8 BS. Served in WWII, Korean and Vietnam wars.
I’ll go with Hackworth as number 1 and Murphy as #2.
Today, I salute every every veteran (with exception of John Kerry , of course) served with honor, from the Indian Wars to the current middle east conflicts. I’m proud to say I have family members in every single conflict since before we became the United States.
Marines, Soldiers, Airman, Sailors and Guardsman, today is your day!

Kerry, who served in Vietnam...
Most decorated because as Commander of a Swift Boat, he was responsible for writing the after-action reports promoting himself for Purple Hearts, and other awards. A Purple Heart for getting a kernel of rice stuck in your butt cheek.
Wonder if anybody has the photo of him in Nam looking down the barrel of his rifle?.
It was passed around when he started pimping for office.
The Big Guy somehow couldn’t serve in the Armed Forces but was able to play college football. I’ll wager that Mommy and Daddy knew a doctor...or a politician.
AL GORE bending over a rifle ...
ROFL!!
That’s it thank you
He must have been napping in training class.
