spirit. You said...." Kerry turn the offensive on the Mekong. He was tired of taking casualties. Some people thought he was crazy at first because it was so risky, but then it worked. I guess you could say he had a policy of pre-emption on the Mekong. "..... So I assume you read the article and agree with these statements. Oh and it didn't take very long for kerry to become offensive did it. And you seem to agree with pre-emption Bit of a loose cannon this kerry person....don't you think so? Did not take kerry long to get fed up with taking casualties So you think it's ok to kill civilians? Interesting. ...." By his own admission during those four months, Mr. Kerry continually kept ramming his Swiftboat onto an enemy-held shore on assorted occasions alone and with a few men, killing civilians and even a wounded enemy soldier. One can begin to appreciate Zumwalt’s problem with Mr. Kerry as commander of an unarmored craft dependent upon speed of maneuver to keep it and its crew from being shot to pieces. Mr. Kerry now refers to those civilian deaths as “accidents of war.”And within four days of his third Purple Heart, Mr. Kerry applied to take advantage of a technicality which allowed him to request immediate transfer to a stateside post.".....
