Kerry's best friend was General Pershing's son who was killed in Vietnam. He had many other friends who were killed in Vietnam. He fought there, killed and almost died (three Purple Hearts, Silver and Bronze star). He had earned the right to speak out against that awful war.

I went to school with Patton's grandson. He was an anti-war moderate in the 70's. Very nice guy. Patton by then might have been senile, or just his old ornery self. Patton was not a nice guy nor even humane, though he was tough on the Nazis. Kerry did not aide and abet the enemy becuse by the time he protested we'd already lost and were in a hopeless quagmire. We couldn't egven trust our allies. It was Iraq times ten every day. Ending that war ASAP was the best "winning" strategy. Only fools chase lost causes.
