Swift Boat Veterans For Truth: Medals

TRANSCRIPT:

ANNOUNCER: Symbols. They represent the best things about America.

(On screen: www.swiftvets.com)

Freedom... Valor... Sacrifice.

Symbols, like the heroes they represent, are meant to be respected.

Some didn't share that respect and turned their backs on their brothers.

JOHN KERRY [Remarks during appearance on "Viewpoints" in 1971]: ...renounce the symbols which this country gives... and that was the medals themselves...I gave back -- I can't remember - six, seven, eight, nine...

(On screen: Nov. 6, 1971)

ANNOUNCER: How can the man who renounced his country's symbols now be trusted?
