However, Kerry repeated his story about being in Cambodia in 1968 many
times
over the years, even after the errors in it were pointed out to him.

Kerry has acknolwedged the error and amended his statement accordingly.

He has not. He still claims to have been sent to Cambodia, only now he says
he got the year wrong. In order for that to have happened, Nixon would have
had to have ordered Kerry to Cambodia less than a month after taking office,
because that is when Kerry went home. Yet Kerry says he was sent there five
times, shot at by Christian Vietnamese celebrating Christmas, and listened
to a Christmas broadcast there. None of his crew members, even those that
support him, claim to have ever been sent to Cambodia.
