The new soldier
Since its publication in 1971, John Kerry's book "The New Soldier" has
acquired almost legendary status. Rumors abound of political operatives scrambling to locate and suppress stray copies during Kerry's House campaign in 1972. Copies now sell on Ebay for upwards of $500. In this section we present an overview of the book, along with most of the text and selected photographs. Much of the text consists of John Kerry's testimony before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations on April 22, 1971, and quotes from other members of the VVAW, mostly taken from the Winter Soldier testimony itself. Both of these are present in the Congressional Record, and are therefore in the public domain. http://ice.he.net/~freepnet/kerry/in...pic=NewSoldier Poll Should a man who falsely accused American troops of atrocities serve as Commander-in-Chief?
