Videotape Contradicts John Kerry’s Own Statements Over Vietnam Medals
By Brian Ross and Chris Vlasto
ABCNEWS.com
April 26— Contradicting his statements as a candidate for president,
Sen. John Kerry claimed in a 1971 television interview that he threw
away as many as nine of his combat medals to protest the war in
Vietnam.
"I gave back, I can't remember, six, seven, eight, nine medals," Kerry
said in an interview on a Washington, D.C., news program on WRC-TV
called Viewpoints on Nov. 6, 1971, according to a tape obtained by
ABCNEWS.
Throughout his presidential campaign, Kerry has denied that he threw
away any of his medals during an anti-war protest in April 1971.
Calling it a "phony controversy" instigated by the Republican party,
Kerry said on Good Morning America today that he has always accurately
said what took place. "I threw my ribbons. I didn't have my medals. It
is very simple."
He also said he — and the military — didn't make a distinction between
medals and ribbons. "We threw away the symbols of what our country
gave us for what we had gone through," he said.
And in an interview with ABCNEWS' Peter Jennings last December, he
said it was a "myth."
But Kerry told a much different story on Viewpoints. Asked about the
anti-war veterans who threw their medals away, Kerry said "they
decided to give them back to their country."
Kerry was asked if he gave back the Bronze Star, Silver Star and three
Purple Hearts he was awarded for combat duty as a Navy lieutenant in
Vietnam. "Well, and above that, [I] gave back the others," he said.
The statement directly contradicts Kerry's most recent claims on the
disputed subject to the Los Angeles Times last Friday. "I never ever
implied that I did it, " Kerry told the newspaper, responding to the
question of whether he threw away his medals in protest.
"I'm proud of my medals. I always was proud of them," he told Jennings
in December, adding that he had only thrown away his "ribbons" and the
medals of two other veterans who could not attend the protest.
Flip Flop?
The disputed incident happened 33 years ago this past weekend, on
April 23, 1971, when Kerry led the group Vietnam Veterans Against the
War in a protest against the war they fought.
Many veterans were seen throwing their medals and ribbons over the
fence in front of the U.S. Capitol. The Boston Globe and other
newspapers reported that Kerry was among these veterans.
"In a real sense, this administration forced us to return our medals
because beyond the perversion of the war, these leaders themselves
denied us the integrity those symbols supposedly gave our lives,"
Kerry said the following day.
But in 1984, when he first ran for the U.S. Senate, Kerry revealed he
still had his medals. According to a Boston Globe report on April 15,
1984, union officials had expressed uneasiness with Kerry's candidacy
because he had thrown his medals away. Kerry acknowledged the medals
he threw away were, in fact, another soldier's medals. He reportedly
invited a union official home to personally inspect his Silver Star,
Bronze Star and three Purple Hearts, awarded for his combat duty as a
Navy lieutenant.
In the 1971 Viewpoints interview, he made no mention of the ribbons or
the medals belonging to another veteran.
And in 1988, Kerry again clarified his statement by saying he threw
out ribbons he had been awarded for three combat wounds, but not his
medals. "I was proud of my personal service and remain so," he told
the National Journal.
Eight years later in 1996, Kerry said while he did throw out his
ribbons, he didn't throw out his own medals because he "didn't have
time to go home [to New York] and get them," he told The Boston Globe.
Kerry's campaign Web site says he "is proud of the work he did to end
the war. The Nixon Administration made John Kerry one of its targets
and Republicans have been smearing him ever since. John Kerry threw
his ribbons and the medals of two veterans who could not attend the
event, and said, 'I am not doing this for any violent reasons, but for
peace and justice, and to try to make this country wake up once and
for all.'"

Listen to yourselves. Who hung-back and partied while (allegedly)
serving in the Guard, while Kerry did combat duty in Vietnam?
That's right, "flight suit" George Bush. Guffaw.

I predict a new Democrat candidate will appear at a seemingly short
time before the November election. People of all political stripe
will be soooo sick of Kerry by then that anybody else will look like
a better choice AND... there will be less time left to examine the
new candidate closely.
Arty .... tossing the medals or the accompanying ribbons or pins for
each medal is the equivalent of a dishonorable discharge in the eyes
of officers.
Yeah, run a bull dike!

Art, Kerry could of ditched service all together, even gone to Moscow to
protest the US, snorted cocaine, smoked weed, lied before a grand jury,
commited purgery, give away missle guidance technoilogy, along with
special machine tools, nuclear secrets to the Chinese and you'd still
vote for him. In fact, I know you did vote for Clinton.
Hey dipshit, what branch did you serve in? Why was this not a big issue
when Clinton was running agaisnt Dole? Dole had a real combat wound, not
a scratch that only required neosporin. He lost the use of his left arm
since liberating Italy. While Clinton evaded service all together, but
you voted for Clinton. So this again shows the liberal contradiction and
the hypocracy. So shut up, stick a sock in it. Of course, Dole didnt
mention "WWII" in every sentence, he wasnt looking for special treatment
or pity.
I 'hung-back' during that time....
Joined the Navy and spent 2 years 7 months and 7 days total Foreign
and/or Sea Duty (In my case Sea Duty)...
GWB was in the same military I was. Either or both of us were subject
to call and I'm sure we would have gone.
Matter of fact, if I had not gotten out on 11 June 1961 at the end of
my enlistment...I would have traveled with USS Enterprise to Viet Nam.
My particular rating would have required me to extend my enlistment
just one month after I got out...
GWB and I did our duty...

So what, idiot? It was obviously a setup photo-op, with him in his

Besides, that's not the point, you idiot. The POINT is that you
stupid right-wingers are hypocritical and dishonest enough to attack

Bush was no appointed, he wont the majority of electoral votes. The
count was done 5 times from independent news organizations, all had GWB
as the winner. If you'd like me to point to the constitution where is
said electoral votes not popular voted, I'd be happy to do it. The
liberals always like to amend the constitution to fit them. And Kerry
isnt even in the running. November is going to be funny!

I guess it depends on how far they take their activism. Lots of left

Art, hindsight is always 20/20. Just suppose GWB said there was going to
be a definite terrorist attack, do you really think he could implement
the plan to prevent it without an outcry? Heck, you see all the whining

Actually, an SSI check represents no such thing. SSI qualification
is not means tested at the high end. Dick Chainey can collect SSI if
he has 40 work quarters paid in.

Like they weren't "mad at us" already, as you simplistically call it.
What, are they "MORE mad at us" now? Oh no, not MORE mad at us!
Yes JAC, instead of being really really really mad, they are really
