And what do other Vietnam Vets think of Kerry's heroics?

Here's one guy's opinion:

Here we have a JFK wannabe (the guy Halsey wanted to court martial for carelessly losing his boat and getting a couple people killed by running across the bow of a Japanese destroyer) who is hardly in Vietnam long enough to get good tan, collects medals faster than Audie Murphy in a job where lots of medals weren't common, gets sent home eight months early and requests separation from active duty a few months after that so he can run for Congress.

Read the rest. I guess wimps like myself and Josh Marshall would know this stuff if we knew anything about the military.

Equal Time: Snopes.com calls these criticisms of Kerry unfounded, although I have to wonder if some of the comments from his former superiors wasn't affected by the fact that he had since become a U. S. Senator.
