Yeah. The only thing that could be worse is if we had a bunch of
limp-wristed, pacifist, liberal democrates instead.


Funny how people can back someone who checked "do not volunteer" on his
paperwork, and denigrate a decorated veteran who volunteered for Viet Nam and
was wounded 3 times.

But you mean like this limp-wristed, pacifist, liberal democrates [sic]?

"In a combat environment often requiring independent, decisive action LTJG
(Lieutenant Junior Grade) Kerry was unsurpassed. He constantly reviewed tactics
and lessons learned in river operations and applied his experience at every
opportunity. On one occasion while in tactical command of a three boat
operation his units were taken under fire from ambush. LTJG Kerry rapidly
assessed the situation and ordered his units to turn directly into the ambush.
This decision resulted in routing the attackers with several enemy KIAs.

LTJG Kerry emerges as the acknowledged leader in his peer group. His bearing
and appearance are above reproach. He has of his own volition learned the
Vietnamese language and is instrumental in the successful Vietnamese training
programs.

During this period of this report LTJG Kerry has been awarded the Silver Star
medal, the Bronze Star medal, the Purple Heart medal (2nd and 3rd awards).
