When is Senator Kerry going to release his military records?

Question

You know the ones that would clear up whether or not he earned one of the two purple hearts he received. He claimed, "win or lose" he would release those, and here we are, four years later, still waiting. In his own personal journal from Vietnam he writes that he had yet to see action, yet he got a purple heart for wounds supposedly received during this period, how can that be??

Answer 1

Those have already been release, the ones that were under question, along with a few other facts he mentioned were redacted.

He cannot release those as thats not his decision to make.

He at one point said that he was over the border in Cambodia, and he was roundly criticized as we weren't 'supposed' to be in Cambodia.

Its since come out that we did dip our toes into Cambodia.

He may, or may not have his orders to be in Cambodia in that part of his record that has been redacted by the army.

Only they can release that.

The information about his medal and what he did to earn not only the three purple hearts but also the Bronze and Silver star are online.

I saw an interview with the man he saved to get the star, he sounded pretty happy about it.

As the daughter of a man who got a Purple Heart in WWII I'm also upset that in the interests of denigrating a man who served, they suggested that all you had to do to earn one was know someone.  Or maybe they are angry that the Cong didn't have better aim.

Answer 2

you forgot to mention the bronze and silver stars that kerry EARNED in combat.

your questioning of kerry is really questioning the entire military's method of rewarding bravery under fire and is disgraceful.

you have absolutely no evidence to back your claims, and yet you KEEP SMEARING AND LYING ABOUT THIS BRAVE AND HEROICE AMERICAN.

i for one am sick to death of COMPLETELY UNFOUNDED innuendo being passed as FACT by people who have never known a day of military service.

you sir, are a liar and a disgrace.

hope this helps to answer your continued smear of an american hero.

Answer 3

What are you talking about?  This is 2008, not 2004.  Besides,Kerry's military records were released 4 years ago--and proved the accusations of the "swiftboaters' were a pack of lies.

Talk about beating a dead horse!

maybe its time you went out and bought a new calender?
