Ever wonder why Kerry has so much video and pictorial footage of his service in Nam? Especially since video cams were not that common back then and surely very expensive.
Maybe he did have ulterior motives for "volunteering"?
Just speculation I suppose... |

I think John Fonda Kerry used a movie camera, I don't remember there being camcorders back then...

Does anyone know if OIC of swiftboats ever wore these silly fatigues he
has on with ammunition draped around his body. If it could be shown that naval officers did not wear this garb it could be a metaphore for all these other phoney made up BS. His own pictures could be used against him.

I believe the officer dressed the same as the enlisted. Why would you want to point out to snipers who is in command?

What I've seen of his movies shows him walking around in the jungle with a gun in one hand. If Kerry was a Swift Boat officer, why wasn't he on his boat?

Well the Swifites were in charge of breaking up VC supply lines along the rivers so I would assume if they ran across a village they suspected of storing food or munitions for the VC they would get park and go explore. My guess anyway.
