Kerry citation a 'total mystery' to ex-Navy chief
August 28, 2004
BY THOMAS LIPSCOMB Advertisement
Former Navy Secretary John Lehman has no idea where a Silver Star
citation
displayed on Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry's campaign Web
site
came from, he said Friday. The citation appears over Lehman's signature.
"It is a total mystery to me. I never saw it. I never signed it. I never
approved it. And the additional language it contains was not written by
me,"
he said.
The additional language varied from the two previous citations, signed
first
by Adm. Elmo Zumwalt and then Adm. John Hyland, which themselves differ.
The
new material added in the Lehman citation reads in part: "By his brave
actions, bold initiative, and unwavering devotion to duty, Lieutenant
(jg)
Kerry reflected great credit upon himself...."
Asked how the citation could have been executed over his signature
without
his knowledge, Lehman said: "I have no idea. I can only imagine they
were
signed by an autopen." The autopen is a device often used in the routine
execution of executive documents in government.
Kerry senior adviser Michael Meehan could not be reached for comment on
Kerry's records.
Thomas Lipscomb is chairman of the Center for the Digital Future in New
York.
