Dave,

Are you saying that the other COs let and accepted Kerry's false
reports? Didn't they even read the reports? I can't understand how they
didn't do anything about the reports at the time, is they knew they were
phony?

What I can't understand is why his CO wrote & signed his evaluations,
saying what they said; and that others further up the chain of command
approved them.

Oh wait, I know how to explain that too... Kerry obviously wrote his own
evals, just like he wrote all the post action reports!

Kerry was probably writing *EVERYTHING* bad about the Viet Nam war,
including the news read by Walter Cronkite every evening! What a busy
man he must have been!
