Apparently, Senator Kerry has a hard time remembering where he was in 1968.
According to his campaign's website, he was deployed to the Western Pacific in February of that year, but didn't report for duty in Vietnam until November.
But when giving a speech on Martin Luther King Day last year (2003), he said,
- I remember well April, 1968 - I was serving in Vietnam -- a place of violence -- when the news reports brought home to me and my crewmates the violence back home - and the tragic news that one of the bullets flying that terrible spring took the life of [Dr. King].
