I'VE NEVER thought the mistaken extra "V" for valor on John Kerry's Silver Star ribbon was of any consequence -- a Silver Star is given for gallantry in combat for gosh sake -- but Douglas Brinkley thinks this could be a big deal -- and he's calling on John Kerry to release more of his military records. This story isn't going away, folks.

UPDATE: Betsy Newmark has some questions for Douglas Brinkley.

BeldarBlog has much more on Kerry's "Combat 'V'", as well as yet more questions for Brinkley. I'm with Bill on the "Combat 'V'" story:

in a target-rich environment for Kerry mistakes and exaggerations, this one doesn't particularly thrill me.
