Please post a source or an explanation for your assertion. Full disclosure: I have knowledge about Geode that goes back to year-2000 when he posted as ACousins on another message board. .

The New York Times reported on Monday night that Mr. Blumenthal had addressed veterans’ groups without saying that his service never took him beyond the East Coast. He also left the impression that he had been among veterans who returned to discover that the climate at home had changed while they were on the front lines. In 2008, for example, he told an audience in Shelton, Conn.: “I served during the Vietnam era,” he said. “I remember the taunts, the insults, sometimes even physical abuse.” Mr. Blumenthal has called a news conference for Tuesday afternoon at a Veterans of Foreign Wars post in West Hartford. In an interview for the article published on Monday, Mr. Blumenthal said that he had tried to make clear that he never served overseas. His campaign called the report by The Times an “outrageous distortion” of his record. The Blumenthal campaign also posted a short video on its Facebook page under the heading “Richard Blumenthal Has Been Consistent, Honest, and Clear About His Military Service Record.” The video was a 26-second snippet of a debate in March in which Mr. Blumenthal mentioned his time in the military, said that he had been “in the reserves” and added, “Although I did not serve in Vietnam, I have seen firsthand the effects of military action.” Merrick Alpert, another Democratic candidate for Senate, said he was “shocked” by Mr. Blumenthal’s claims.
