Where is your proof? The burden of proof rests with those questioning Kerry's medals. There is a presumption the military acted correctly in awarding those medals.

OK, fine. Read the Navy's & Pentagon's supporting documents. Then, if you object to their award of the Silver Star to him... you'll need to decide if you agree that there was a larger problem, or if it was small and limited to this one case. If you disagree with the award, then you can examine the entire issue of medals during the Vietnam War, and take the next logical step: push for charges against any military higher-ups from the Vietnam era who participated in falsely certifying medals.
