Kerry biographer calls for him to release his military records

p — 9/6/2004 12:14:36 PM (archived)

Biagrapher Douglas Brinkley "Tour of Duty" author is beginning to distance himself and his reputation from John Kerry's self-serving claims now calling for Kerry to release ALL his military records. The Kerry camp has lied continuously claiming that all records were released. Meanwhile, Kerry still refuses to sign form DD 180 releasing ALL his records.

Brinkley is now realizing that as an historian his professional reputation is at risk from blithely using Kerry's 'secret' notes for his book, mentioning stuff like Christmas in Cambodia, etc. without doing any corroborating fact checking.
