Yeah, but I heard on the radio yesterday that the captain of the boat said Kerry wasn't on it. Same boat? I don't know. I only heard part of the story. Doesn't matter to me. They both served. God bless them.

I think there is a huge difference between fighting in a war and barely full filling your national guard duty. That was during the draft and they may or may not have had a choice of whether or not to serve like we do now but some where able to use daddy's money and influence to get a cushy states side posting. Kerry's military record is online. He got glowing reports from all his supervisors.
