There is another falsehood in here as well worth noting.
A good case in point is John Kerry's fantastic claim of having spent Christmas in Cambodia in 1968, during the Nixon administration (Hello? LBJ was still in office at the time). Of course, Kerry's story is pure gobbledygook, and even more amazingly, he repeated it on number of occasions, including the floor of the Senate! According to John O'Neill and Jerome Corsi, authors of the new book Unfit for Command, "Kerry was never ordered into Cambodia by anyone and would have been court-marshaled had he gone there. During Christmas 1968, Kerry was stationed at Coastal Division 13 in Cat Lo. Coastal Division 13's patrol areas extended to Sa Dec, about fifty-five miles from the Cambodian border." One of the crewmen, Steve Gardner, explicitly stated during a television interview last week that he was always on the boat, and it never went into Cambodia.
O'neil actually told Pres. Nixon HE HIMSELF was in Cambodia.
