Holding a finger up to test the breeze lately and it was hit by some slime. Would like to know what the prevailing wisdom is regarding the Bush McCain alliance against the 527s. Have we just been used ...

ugottabe-- Here's the deal. None of us knew Kerry was filing all these reports. And for those that did...they didn't question anything. I am an eyewitness. I was looking right at the 94 boat. As I rem ...

yu gottabekidding-- thanks for the info. I can see how it gets confusing real fast. We weren't privy to damage reports etc and to be honest at the time didn't really care. One reason for it all is boa ...

baldeagl--David was the gunner but as I recall he was wounded seriously earlier and I don't remember him being on the boat that day...but I wouldn't swear to that. Almost two months had passed. As for ...

Navy_Navy_Navy -- never saw a damage report for the 94...suspect that's because there was no second mine to do any damage. As I said in an earlier post, there are at least 20 guys out there that witne ...

Just to keep the record straight, Chenoweth was OinC of the PCF 93. I know in the interviews it sounds like ODell is saying the 23 boat but he meant the 93. I know because I was the 23's EN from Jan 6 ...

kate--you've asked a question someone else will have to answer. The account you quote sounds a bit embellished but I can't say it didn't happen. I do know the crew that took over the 94 after his depa ...

As far as I remember Alston was the twin gunner. The catch is Kerry didn't train with that crew...he was a floater. Unlike the rest of us who trained together at Coronado and went over together, he ha ...
