Subject: RE: BS: Separate Realities of Bush & Kerry Support
Hmm, a posting I made to this thread vanished. I'll try again.
Old Guy, Kerry DID ask for a deferment to study in Paris for a year. But he was not trying to avoid Viet Nam.
How do I know, you ask?
because on Feb 10, 1968 he wrote to his CO and specifically requested to be sent to Viet Nam and serve in a swift boat.
