Why the Right is conveniently leaving out Kerry's Bronze Star...

Advertisements [?]

(repost from locked GD thread)

From his Bronze Star Citation...

"The man in the water was receiving sniper fire from both banks. Lieut. Kerry directed his gunners to provide suppressing fire, while from an exposed position on the bow, his arm bleeding and in pain and with disregard for his personal safety, he pulled the man aboard. Lieut. Kerry then directed his boat to return and assist the other damaged boat to safety..."

BTW, sorry Mods, about originally posting in GD)
