He was over there for a brief time, got what are purportedly minor wounds for his purple hearts--did he lose any men under his command?   I kind of got from the debate that "I know what it is like to lose men" (or something to that effect).

No, he didn't.
It was a lie.

The importent question, though....





....was Kerry listening to "Eye Of The Tiger" during his pre-debate manicure? -to get psyched!

Yeah, that's the same thing I was wondering. Anyone have any documentation on it?

How many men would he have had under his command?

He never left his buddy's behind.

I don't think anyone on his boat was killed in Vietnam.  I think other men in their unit were killed and overlal they lost something like 50 KIA out of 400 men deployed over several years.
