I wish I could believe Navy types will wake up, UW, but I have not a lot of faith. They've had plenty of time before now. I posted your letter by Earl Lively from your post #81598 to a bunch of my classmates and got only one reply...from another Marine! IMHO, this is the defining paragraph from Lively.

...The Navy is stonewalling Freedom of Information Act requests by Judicial Watch for the rest of Kerry's records?not surprising, because ever since the Tailhook flap, the Navy has had a P.C. virus. Feminist Rep. Patricia Schroeder (Dem-CO) figuratively castrated the Navy's top brass, and the Navy cringed from political correctness. Pressure and morale at the top was so low that a Chief of Naval Operations committed suicide. The Navy doesn't want to admit that it succumbed to political pressure to restore honors stripped from a discredited turncoat. In hiding the truth, the Navy Department dishonors even the lowest-ranking sailor who ever swabbed a deck.

I have thoughts about other reasons the Navy has not been forthcoming on this...For one thing, Jimmy Carter made all of Kerry's seditious acts disappear. No one wants Kerry to win and use any leaks as a reason to hammer the Navy...discretion being the better part of valor and all that BS....jj
