<font color=blue>"The after-action reports have the details of the enemy fire, casualties and battle damage."<font color=black>

After action reports did not obviate the requirement that
a separate report must be filed for each incident when
they received enemy fire & an equally separate casualty
report was required to be filed for each instance when
there was a casualty. These reports were required in
addition to the after action reports.

Since they were not filed in each instance cited by the
Swift Boat Vets, they stand as additional evidence that
Kerry's lone version of events stand at odds with all
other available evidence, including Kerry's own
conflicting accounts.

<font color=blue>"Read the after-action reports for yourself. I don't think that they were faked. If you see anything in them that suggests they were fabricated please let me know."<font color=black>

I'm not questioning Kerry's ability to self aggrandize
with alternate versions of reality & to do so in writing.
That has now been clearly established time & time again
throught his life.

The point is that the mysteriously missing casualty
reports & enemy fire reports along with the documentation
& sworn testimony of numerous eye witnesses to these
events all stand in stark contrast to Kerry's version of
reality, again not an unusual faux pas for Kerry as
history clearly shows.
