While in command of Swift Boat 44, John Kerry and crew operated

without prudence in a Free Fire Zone, carelessly firing at targets

of opportunity racking up a number of enemy kills and some

civilians. His body count included-- a woman, her baby, a 12 year-

old boy, an elderly man and several South Vietnamese soldiers.

"It is one of those terrible things, and I'll never forget, ever,

the sight of that child," Kerry later said about the dead baby. "But

there was nothing that anybody could have done about it. It was the

only instance of that happening.

Kerry said he was appalled that the Navy's ''free fire zone'' policy

in Vietnam put civilians at such high risk.
