Yet another seared memory

The Opinion Journal has another entry in the growing list of Kerry lies.

From a John Kerry speech commemorating Martin Luther King Day, Jan. 20, 2003:

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 that unabashedly maladjusted citizen.

If you take a look at John Kerry's self-described service record, we find that he didn't get to Vietnam until November, 1968.

Why does anyone think he has any credibility?
