By the way, can anyone reading this confirm or deny that Kerry's picture is
displayed in Vietnam as one of their heroes (and NOT for our side)?

1. If most of Kerry's fellow Swift veterans don't support him, then
who were all those guys with him at the Democratic Convention? They
made it appear that Kerry has the complete support of his "Band of
Brothers" from Vietnam.
John Kerry has been able to convince about 13 men who served on Swift
boats in the Mekong Delta to support him, 7 or 8 of whom were at
various times crew members on his own 6-man boat. Those are the men
the Kerry campaign so prominently featured at the Democratic
Convention. The photo we have posted at SwiftVets.com shows Kerry with
19 of his fellow Swift boat commanders in Coastal Division 11. Four
officers were not present for that photo. Only one of his 23 fellow
commanders from Coastal Division 11 supports John Kerry.
Overall, more than 250 Swift boat veterans are on the record
questioning Kerry's fitness to serve as Commander-in-Chief. That list
includes his entire chain of command -- every single officer Kerry
served under in Vietnam. The Kerry game plan is to ignore all this and
pretend that the 13 veterans his campaign jets around the country and
puts up in 5-star hotels really represent the truth about his short,
controversial combat tour.
The Swift boats fought in groups, so the other boat commanders who
fought alongside Kerry know him well and can accurately describe what
he did and did not do. In many cases the commanders have a better
perspective on Kerry than his own crew members, since the latter had
no way to determine whether he was following orders and how well he
worked with his peers."
