Oh yea Asskisser and Harry you need to look at Kerry's Purple
Hearts and
how
he got them.. Just a little fact finding mission.or do you have
the
guts
to
look for yourself.
1. Gunshot wound,left arm, in a firefight on river patrol.
2. Shrapnel wound, right arm, bomb near patrol boat.
3. Shrapnel wound, left thigh.
Wow! Those sound like some serious wounds. How long did he spend in
the
hospital for each of his injuries?
You don't consider shrapnel wounds, and gunshot wounds serious? How
many times, and what types of combat injuries did YOU receive? I take
it you must have some, because above, you've qualified yourself to be
an expert, and subsequently deem gunshot and shrapnel wounds serious
or not.
(Breaking resolution again...)
Some wounds are serious, some aren't. His fall in the latter category.
Well, they were serious enough to get him a few Purple Hearts and
rotated
back to the world.
So in essence, your opinion seems to be politically skewed from reality.
Kerry's wounds were just serious enough to get him a few Purple Hearts
which
would allow him to get rotated home early. It appears that Kerry knew
how
the system worked and worked the system to his advantage. Kerry's CO was
probably hoping that he would get his Purple Hearts quickly and go back
stateside so that a real warrior could take his place and not cry every
time
he got a booboo.
And you were exposed to enemy fire where, Bertie?
How many times do I have to repeat myself? I was never exposed to enemy
fire.
What authority grants you the stature to comment on foriegn policy when you
have never worked in a job of that type?
