Hairy dog story

From http://www.humaneusa.org/2004_presid...kerry_2004.pdf

John Kerry asserts:

When I was serving on a swiftboat in Vietnam, my crewmates and I had a dog we called VC. We all took care of him, and he stayed with us and loved riding on the swiftboat deck. I think he provided all of us with a link to home and a few moments of peace and tranquility during a dangerous time. One day as our swiftboat was heading up a river, a mine exploded hard under our boat. After picking ourselves up, we discovered VC was MIA. Several minutes of frantic search followed after which we thought we'd lost him. We were relieved when another boat called asking if we were missing a dog. It turns out VC was catapulted from the deck of our boat and landed confused, but unhurt, on the deck of another boat in our patrol.

Amazing.

What's also amazing is how this other boat was close enough to catch a flying dog, but not close enough for it's crews' recollections regarding Kerry to be considered valid by the mainstream media.
