Kerry’s non-honorable discharge
I was a colonel assigned as Director of Operations of Headquarters, Texas Air National Guard when George W. Bush was a lieutenant in the Air Guard. Since 1999, I have been besieged by the media, from the London Guardian to CBS’s Sixty Minutes, NBC, the Boston Globe, and others, with allegations and questions about Lt. Bush’s service in and discharge from the Texas Air National Guard and USAF. I recently appeared on Fox & Friends twice to shoot down CBS’s phony memos about Lt. Bush and allegations about his discharge. In the interest of fairness and equal time, it is time scrutiny of John Kerry’s discharge(s) is demanded.
…
A document [PDF] on Kerry’s website is a form letter from W. Graham Claytor, Carter’s Secretary of the Navy, which grants his Honorable Discharge.
Secretary Claytor’s letter says that this action to award an Honorable Discharge Certificate is taken in accordance with Title 10, U.S. Code, Sections 1162 and 1163, which deal with grounds for involuntary separation of a reserve officer and provide for the action of “a board of officers” to examine an officer’s records and review previous actions. Obviously, this was the aforementioned board for appeal resulting from President Carter’s executive order. Unless Lt. Kerry had previously received an undesirable discharge, he had nothing to appeal and would not have come before this board.
