So if there not a veteran, it's fair game?


Ted Kennedy was a veteran.


Well, sort of. Right after he was expelled from Harvard for cheating, he
enlisted for four years, then got the old man to get his hitch shortened
to two. While most Army recruits were headed to Korea and other hot
spots, Kennedy went to France. After two years service, he was still a
Private.





Kennedy spent 47 years serving his country in the U.S. Senate. You left
that Carolina PD after a few years. And your departure was "sudden."
