Now, personally, I don't care how Kerry performed his actions. I think it was admirable for him to save his comrade and there is nothing wrong with shooting a fallen enemy (who possibly could still shoot at your men). I also feel that Kerry earned the right to complain about the War (unlike Jane Fonda) because he did actually live the experience firsthand. (remember, I said it is other veterans that despise him for his actions...I didn't say I completely agreed with them).
Now, as far as Kerry's Bronze Star is concerned, it isn't my place to question whether he deserved it or not. The only ones that could actually question that are the ones who were actually there at the time. Of course, those men have now been labeled "Biggest Douschbags in the Universe", so I suppose that means their opinions and accounts don't count.

I agree Cerek, I wasn't there, I didn't see what went on Kerry may have deserved the Bronze Star, or he may not have deserved it. I find it interesting the men that claim something negative about President Bush's service are great and wonderful, men that claim something negative about Kerry's service are... well I believe it has degraded into name calling by of all people not the evil Name Callers (as they are labeled).
I do know this, one of the canidates running for the office of President of the USA has by his own admition comitted acts contrary to the GC and Atrocities by his own hand. The other canidate, actions labeled atrocities were committed that are at least 6 to 8 degrees of seperation away from his own hand, yet he is not fit to be President of the USA because of 6 to 8 degrees of seperation, but the man who's hands preformed atrocities, who's finger pulled the trigger after recieving nerve impulses from his brain is fit for President of the USA.
