Robert E. Lambert doesn’t plan to vote for John Kerry. But the Eagle Point man challenges claims by a group called Swift Boat Veterans for Truth that there was no enemy fire aimed at the five swift boats, including the one commanded by Kerry, on March 13, 1969 on the Bay Hap River in the southern tip of what was then South Vietnam.
or.........
"We didn't even know for two minutes that Rassmann was even missing and then Mike Medeiros in the fantail said, 'Man overboard, man overboard.' Me and Kerry looked around and saw Rassmann in the water, and bullets were skipping across the water at his head. Rassmann went up and down holding his breath because Charley was shooting at him, shooting at us. "Kerry said, 'We got to go get him.' In the middle of this, all four boats are shooting at this ambush, and you can't hear yourself think, let alone hear orders.
but dont take my word for it, take it from Thurlow who manged to get a bronze star that day too.........
