| As a former intelligence unit commander, I would like to know the assigned duties of the person or persons who photographed Kerry in his macho moment for posterity. Who owns the film? It smacks of misuse of personnel or property or both. Was there a propaganda effort being made and this is part of that effort? I recall some problems when gun camera film was taken by one of the aces for his own purposes. Any insight into these movies that are being used might prove interesting |

I'm surprised that this movie thing with Kerry has not been brought up by the media. During my tour in Vietnam in 1966-67, I spent the last six months on the Mekong River near Dong Tam with the Mobile Riverine Force. I was in the 9th Div. as a ground-pounder and we went out in the mike boats. I NEVER had time for a camera-just made sure I had my 16, plenty of grenades and that worthless flak vest. I could have had some great movies I assure you. What a joke! C'mon Fox-ask this simple question.
