You don't consider gunshot and shrapnel wounds serious?



Don, you are missing the point. Indeed one would think that gunshot
and
shrapnel wounds would be serious, especially if they resulted in being
honored with Purple Hearts. On would think that they would also
result
in
some serious hospital time for recovery.

The problem is that Kerry served no serious time in the hospital due
to
these "wounds". In fact I think he spent no overnight time in any
hospital
as a result of these *injuries*.

What a piece of **** this man is.

What a strong man Kerry is, Gunshot and Shrapnel wounds, in the filthy
terrain of Nam, Leaches in most all water sources. Wearing the same
clothing
for days on end. Bugs crawling everywhere. Sweltering heat, sweating
most
all the time.

And here Kerry is, Shot... And going back out in all of it to fight
alongside the rest of his buddies.

And you think he would be more of a man for laying back in a hospital...
Naaaa the bravery shows, he served, he was wounded and continued to
serve.

BTW, I hear nobody has stepped forward to say Bush ever showed up in
Alabama.


If Kerry was so ready to fight with his buddies? Why did he leave after
his
3 scratch wounds? Why did he request the Purple Hearts? Yea that's right
He
requested the Purple Hearts. Then left his buddies in only 4 months. When
the rest was their longer (Over 1 year). Yea he was willing to go back and
fight yea right! Where in the hell have you been this is past news. Even
the
media has dropped it because Bush had not only medical records but also
People came out saying he had full filled his Guard duty in Alabama. Oh
and
Bush didn't come back home a Bash Veterans Like Kerry did. Kerry couldn't
wait to get with Jane Fonda. This is also document in the Media.

This boy watches waaaay to much TEEVEE, it has effected his thinking
process.
First, you don't *request* Purple Hearts, either you earned them or you
didn't. How many do you have?
Second, when your time is up, you leave. Did you even serve?
Third, Bush didn't *came back* from anywhere. When did you come back from
VN?
Fifth, Kerry didn't *bash* veterans. But you certainly are.
You can provide no credible reference to any of your assertions, otherwise
you would have.

A tour of duty in Vietname was not accomplished while on a ship at sea, or
in port for a port call. While your ship was on duty and within a certain
distance from the coast you were considered in country. Kerry served 4
months in country.

As I said, Kerry's first tour was aboard the USS Gridley. Apparently, I
am not the only one who believes his Gridley service qualifies. I just
Googled Kerry "first tour" and came back with 4,400 hits.

I got that many injuries, and I was stateside in the Air Force. Working on
transport planes electronics. A few scratches like Mr.. Kerry and hit by a
ricochet from a .38 pistol at the range during annual qualifying. Not
combat, so no Purple Hearts, just a bandaid or 2.

decade after the war there ended.

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.
