    Kerry War Comrades Prepare Battle -- Against Kerry

    KERRY WAR COMRADES PREPARE BATTLE -- AGAINST KERRY

    Capped by Kerry's primetime speech to accept the Democratic Party's nomination, Thursday's program will include appearances and remarks by Kerry's Swift Boat crewmates, the Kerry-Edwards campaign announced in a press release this morning.

    But a group of veterans will soon try to convince a nation how what is presented on the convention stage tonight -- may not be the full story: "Only 2 of John Kerry's 23 fellow Swift boat commanders from Coastal Division 11 support his candidacy today."

    A new bombshell book written by the man who took over John Kerry's Swift Boat charges: Two of John Kerry's three Purple Heart decorations (#1 and #3) resulted from self-inflicted wounds, not suffered under enemy fire.

    The startling Purple Heart accusations, outlined in detail for the first time, are found in UNFIT FOR COMMAND, Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry.

    And that's just the beginning.

    The book, previewed by the DRUDGE REPORT, will be unleashed next month by REGNERY.

    The book hit #2 on the AMAZON sales chart on the eve of the Kerry acceptance speech in Boston.

    Swift Boat Veterans began to fume after Kerry's campaign used a photograph of John Kerry and 19 other Coastal Division 11 Swift boat officers [taken at Ton Sun Nuht Air Base on January 22, 1969] in a pro-Kerry advertisement.

    William Shumadine, a member of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth pictured in the photograph, explains in UNFIT: "John Kerry's use of a photograph with his nineteen comrades, with knowledge that eleven of them comdemn him and six who cannot or do not want to be involved, is a complete misreprentation to the public and a total fraud."

    [A major campaign is being planned, beginning next week, over 200 anti-Kerry vets involved, with news conferences in battleground states.]

    and yet the people who actually served directly with him (his crewmates) are apparently for him.

    Thursday's program will include appearances and remarks by Kerry's Swift Boat crewmates
    would seem, at the least, equally as important as the 21 fellow commanders...

    Uh, KB... His support amongst the people who've served with him is miniscule at best.

    Yeah, there's one or two, but by no means the majority.

    Face it, Kerry's behavior post-Vietnam killed his chances with almost every Vet from that era (and my guess is, Vets from Korea and even WWII).

    i know, i know. i just think the drudge report was a bit misleading.

    i have no doubt kerry's anti-war stance hurt his chances with the average vet. but, there are probably a few out there who weren't happy with the war in the first place.
