John Kerry does not want his service record questioned.
This is the reason why.
On 18 Feb. 1966 John Kerry signed a 6 year enlistment contract with
the Navy (plus a 6-month extension during wartime).
On 18 Feb. 1966 John Kerry also signed an Officer Candidate contract
for 6 years -- 5 years of ACTIVE duty & ACTIVE Naval Reserves, and
1 year of inactive standby reserves (See items #4 & $5).
Because John Kerry was discharged from TOTAL ACTIVE DUTY of
only 3 years and 18 days on 3 Jan. 1970, he was then required to
attend 48 drills per year, and not more than 17 days active duty for
training. Kerry was also subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
Additionally, Kerry, as a commissioned officer, was prohibited from
making adverse statements against his chain of command or statements
against his country, especially during time of war. It is also interesting
to note that Kerry did not obtain an honorable discharge until Mar. 12, 2001
even though his service obligation should have ended July 1, 1972.
Lt. John Kerry's letter of 21 Nov. 1969 asking for an early release from
active US Navy duty falsely states "My current regular period of obligated
service would be completed in December of this year."
On Jan. 3, 1970 Lt. John Kerry was transferred to the Naval Reserve
Manpower Center in Bainridge, Maryland.
Where are Kerry's Performance Records for 2 years of obligated Ready
Reserve, the 48 drills per year required and his 17 days of active duty
per year training while Kerry was in the Ready Reserves?
Have these records been released?
Has anyone ever talked to Kerry's Commanding Officer at the Naval
Reserve Center where Kerry drilled?
On 1 July 1972 Lt. John Kerry was transferred to Standby Reserve -Inactive.
On 16 February 1978 Lt. John Kerry was discharged from US Naval Reserve.
Below are some of the crimes Lt. Kerry USNR committed as a Ready
Reservist, while he was acting as a leader of Vietnam Veterans Against
the War:
1. Lt. Kerry attended many rallies where the Vietcong flag was displayed
while our flag was desecrated, defiled, and mocked, thereby giving aid
and comfort to the enemy.
2. Lt. Kerry lied under oath against fellow soldiers before the US Senate
about crimes committed in Vietnam.
3. Lt. Kerry professed to being a war criminal on national television, and
condemned the military and the USA.
4. Lt. Kerry met with NVA and Vietcong communist leaders in Paris, in
direct violation of the UCMJ and the U.S. Constitution.
Lt. Kerry by his own words & actions violated the UCMJ and the U.S. Code
while serving as a Navy officer. Lt. Kerry stands in violation of Article 3,
Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution. Lt. Kerry's 1970 meeting with NVA
Communists in Paris is in direct violation of the UCMJ's Article 104
part 904, and U.S. Code 18 U.S.C. 953.
That meeting, and Kerry's subsequent support of the communists while
leading mass protests against our military in the year that followed, also
place him in direct violation of our Constitution's Article 3, Section 3,
which defines treason as "giving aid and comfort" to the enemy in time
of warfare.
The Constitution's Fourteenth Amendment, Section 3, states, "No person
shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President
and Vice-President ... having previously taken an oath . to support the
Constitution of the United States, [who has] engaged in insurrection or
rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof."
