Further enlightenment of Beldar's calendar and the 21 days: I visited the Archives on 13 Sep 04 and reviewed the Market Time Spot Reports for March. It appears that Kerry's boat, PCF 94, may not have participate in any SeaLords missions after February 28 to March 13.
If memory serves, the 94 boat did participate in a couple of trips during this time, but there was no enemy engagement -- only destruction of some buildings, bunkers, and sampans. This is a 12 day gap of time during which it appears that PCF 94 may have been virtually "idle."
Being a mere civilian I am sure that "idle" is the wrong word and I extend all due apologies to the SwiftBoat Vets and all Veterans who would be rightly offended.
Maybe a Swift Vet can answer this question. What did you do if your boat did not go out on a mission?
[There were 7 days between the 2nd PH and the Silver Star. I plan to look at the Market Time Spot Reports for these days to determine if Kerry was actually on any missions on these days.]
It may turn out that Kerry's days "working" to medals ratio is fast approaching an extremely high level. |
