Sunday, Aug. 22, 2004 12:53 a.m. EDT Vietnam Vet for Kerry: No Evidence for Cambodia Claim The leader of the group Vietnam Veterans for John Kerry said Sunday that Kerry's claim he invaded Cambodia during the Vietnam War was absolutely true, though it wasn't on Christmas Eve 1968, as Kerry originally insisted. But when asked to produce documentation of the mission, VVFJK director John Hurley told "Fox News Sunday's" Chris Wallace that the only evidence to support the claim was "John Kerry's word." Story Continues Below HURLEY: He was five miles into Cambodia, but not on that night. He was five miles into Cambodia on a different occasion. What's been confused here is the night. He was near Cambodia on Christmas Eve [1968]. That's well documented ... WALLACE: Well, then, let me pursue that. What proof do you have that Kerry was ever five miles inside Cambodia? HURLEY: John Kerry's word. WALLACE: Do you have a single record? HURLEY: No, I do not. [END OF EXCERPT] Hurley insisted that "on the 94 boat, they were five miles deep into Cambodia," adding that Kerry's PCF 94 Swift Boat crewmates would "testify" to that fact. But last week, Michael Medeiros, who served on PCF 94 with Kerry and appeared with him at the Democratic National Convention, told the Boston Globe that Kerry and his crew chased an enemy to the Cambodian border - but stopped there and never entered the country.
