It MAY (as in MIGHT-Just-Possibly) get some traction, because Thurlow's accounts both fit accurately IF you take the time to read and visualize and consider the actual events... there are several focal actions, some of which had small-arms fire, and others which had none... IF one is into the independent investigation of truth... rather than "I'm a Kerry supporter, my mind's made up, so don't confuse me with the facts!" Posted by Eye Opener at August 18, 2004 10:03 PMThe reports are now saying that Kerry WROTE his own citation and included the under fire wording in his and the other citations he wrote so apparently he 'padded' his own award. Posted by Mike Puckett at August 19, 2004 12:23 PMWho Cares? All politicians have a congenital condition which prevents them from making the appearance/reality distinction. There are better reasons to be against Kerry than this. This is all beginning to sound a bit shrill. Posted by Jardinero1 at August 19, 2004 01:36 PMI have to admit, the decisive reasons for rejecting Kerry had pretty much been laid out to my satisfaction months ago, even getting beyond the clincher ("There's no strong argument for replacing the President we already have.") which was there before Kerry even started winning primaries. So focusing on those, from my standpoint, isn't all that entertaining. And there's some reason to question whether those who haven't paid attention until now would be open to those previously laid-out reasons if they did not already have doubts about Kerry as a result of -- oh, say -- a couple of hundred men who served with him arguing that he isn't what he claims to be. So it's all good. Posted by McGehee at August 19, 2004 01:54 PMLike Glenn, my focus and interest isn't so much about the story, as how it's being reported, or not. Posted by Rand Simberg at August 19, 2004 01:59 PMLarry Thurlow, 2004-8-19: Quote: I am convinced that the language used in my citation for a Bronze Star was To this day, I can say without a doubt in my mind, along with other accounts I submitted no paperwork for a medal nor did I file an after action report It was not until I had left the Navy -- approximately three months after I believed then as I believe now that I received my Bronze Star for After the mine exploded, leaving swift boat three dead in the water, Kerry campaign spokespersons have conflicting accounts of this And in a new development, Kerry campaign officials are now finally These ever changing accounts of the Bay Hap River incident by Kerry
