300zx, See your local veterans Administration representative and have you're discharge and awards updated to include your just deserts. Also when the day comes for the Bugler to sound "Taps" remember that you also have military honors awaiting you. Make sure that you're family knows your wishes and the avenues to take to get your flag, headstone and everything else that you have earned. Also insist on a human Bugler and not a tackey recording or one of those electronic bugles. Across America volonteers are waiting to sound "Taps" for you. and all vets

If I fall off a 10 story building and Superman catches me half way down he saved my life, without Superman I wold hit the ground like a ton of bricks and die right?
When Rassman fell off Kerry's boat Kerry and Rassman stated that Kerry saved his life. How is that so?
Rassman was a Green Baret, a young Green Baret!
I have known many Green Baret and I know Rassman did not need Kerry to save his life, a Green Baret could have swam back to the Base let alone to a safe place on the side of the river less than 200 yards wide.
Also there were three other boats ready to help Rassman on board 3 boats that did not flee the scene like Kerry did and then come back when the fighting was over to get a medal, I mean to save Rassman.
Kerry didn't save his life, he simply helped him up in the boat.
Kerry and Rassman both lied to get Kerry his medal and are still lying about it now.

an in country Rest and Relaxtion area) his three months and

two weeks to get all the awards (??) he is the most highly

decorated hero of the U. S. in its history, IN ITS TOTAL

HISTORY OF WAR, this thing , if you want to belive him and

the mass piss corps, "nite lie, tom broken jaw, commie russert etal

why he can make another film ,and play himself just like Audie Murphy

ps
out west in the Indian wars do you think that they got out
for three purple hearts, how about the guys on the old
sailing ships who had the "brits" using cannons to send them
40 lbs of nails per shot . give me a break

So what is the truth about Rassman falling off of Kerry's boat? I think the SwiftVets has proven that he wasn't blown off due to Kerry's boat hitting a mine.

Could it be possible that in Kerry's haste to flee down the river that he either gunned the engines or took a sharp turn and dumped Rassman into the river? If so he gets credit for saving Rassman when he was the one who dumped Rassman in the water???

Kerry's band of brothers are not allowed to talk to the press
without Kerry approving the statement, how can the press get to the truth
if every statement must be approved by a proven liar?
That makes his band of brothers a "band of liars"
A well paid band of liars.
President Bush and the Swifties have something Kerry and his "band of liars" know nothing about!

I'm interested in a source for this too. I've been interested in the Rassmann scandal since enlisting in the Swiftees.

Please don't trash Rassman for what he did before the current war started. We all have skeletons......

Dean, I knew about most of the burial stuff, but reminding me at tapes at taps is something I am going to have to tell my wife about. I don't know if she ever really heard live taps or not. I am a 100%er so I know most of my bennies, but everynow and then one slips through. Thanks again.

I think the question is over Rassman's training. At the 17 JAN get together, you can see Kerry making this sort of out of context, out of the blue, comment about Rassman knowing how to swim. Well, maybe he did that because, at the time, they both knew he was a screw-up, who didn't really know how to swim. Maybe that's why he was so panicked, and such a lousy witness - who described a course of events that couldn't possibly have happened, save unless one restricts it to just one boat, the 94 - McHale's . . Kerry's boat.

And the whole point of 'saving his life' wasn't that he couldn't swim - because as you suggest, he was supposed to know how - but that they were receiving heavy incoming fire. John coulda been kilt, said Rassman. What a hero that John was. Sandusky, the Brave, Sandusky, the Honest, was supposed to have said that John the Hero was on all fours, and bleeding profusely, in pain, struggling against the fierce incoming fire . . and . . . well.

It's startin to get funny. You won't see this on SNL. But maybe some mid-western skit shows will properly address some of these issues.
