Read about this guy at bartcop.com. Check out this "article".

<snip>
Kerry did not “volunteer” for service in Vietnam. While in college, he applied for deferment from military service four times and got it each time. He was rejected on his fifth try. In desperation, he joined the Naval Reserve, hoping he would never be called up.

<snip>
George W. Bush joined the Army Reserve during the Vietnam conflict.
He spent many hours and took exhaustive training, qualifying to fly fighter jets in combat. (Jets that were too old to be serviced.)
He could have been called up for active service at any time.

<snip>
Kerry’s attempts to avoid military service were in vain. He was sent to Vietnam, where he spent a month behind the lines being trained as a junior officer. He then served for 10 weeks on Swift Boats before he cut and ran for home. This is heroism?

<snip>
Kerry proudly boasts that he won five medals in 10 weeks of active duty (a record!). He received a Silver Star, a Bronze Star, and three Purple Hearts. But for what?

1. Ignore This Nut
The piece is full of factual errors, too many to bother addressing. The beach towns south of L.A. are full of lunatics like this guy. Ignore him, and them.
