Steve, first off I am no fan of Kerry's. Voting for GB. But, let me try to clear up a few facts. First, I have been on one of those boats, but never shot at on one and never fell overboard from one. On the other hand people were always falling off those boats just like they fell off of trucks, out of choppers, etc. People, even in combat, make stupid mistakes. Anyway, if you kill the engine on that boat the bow drops down and it is about 3-3&1/2 feet above water. You can see the water line painted on the boat in the picture that is posted above. While I think Kerry is truly a lying glory hound, I have no reason to believe he did not pull that man out of the water. I was on a Pathfinder team and have been around plenty of SF guys both overseas and stateside. Most of them are like me, thin and average height. Hell after a few months out in the boonies a guy 6' tall would have an average weight of 140-160 lbs!
