US Navy: Kerry Medals Kosher
September 18, 2004
Associated Press
The Navy’s chief investigator concluded Friday that
procedures were followed properly in the approval of
Sen. John Kerry’s Silver Star, Bronze Star and Purple
Heart medals, according to an internal Navy memo. Vice
Adm. R.A. Route, the Navy inspector general, conducted
the review of Kerry’s Vietnam-ear military service awards
at the request of Judicial Watch, a public interest group.
The group has also asked for the release of additional
records do***enting the Democratic presidential candidate’s
military service.
"Our examination found that existing do***entation regarding
the Silver Star, Bronze Star and Purple Heart medals indicates
the awards approval process was properly followed," Route wrote
in the memo sent Friday to Navy Secretary Gordon England.
"In particular, the senior officers who awarded the medals
were properly delegated authority to do so. In addition, we
found that they correctly followed the procedures in place at
the time for approving these awards."
"Our review also considered the fact that Senator Kerry’s
post-active duty activities were public and that military and
civilian officials were aware of his actions at the time. For
these reasons, I have determined that Senator Kerry’s awards
were properly approved and will take no further action in this
matter."
