I have made specific claims -- I will repeat them, one-by-one, with links when possible. If you wish to call me on them, please do so with specific claims/links of your own. Posting a link to a book doesn't count. Please be specific.

Doug Said: “For the Silver Star incident -- 25 guys present, and none has spoken out against Kerry. None.”
What can I say to prove a negative? No one present that day has come forward to disparage Kerry’s service. And that includes the one, and only, member of the SBV”t” who was present for the Silver Star incident. His name is Larry Lee. He doesn’t like Kerry’s action after the war, but backs his account of the Silver Star and has “no problems with him getting the Silver Star”.
