Gamers Can Go Up Virtual River In 'Nam With Kerry

[Catherine Vincent]

A new online war game lets you play Swift boat skipper and see what happened in Vietnam in March of 1969 through John Kerry's eyes.

Keith Halper of Kuma Reality Games said, "You will be in command of PCF-94 in the Mekong Delta."

This is neither political satire nor propaganda for the Kerry campaign. It's a way of getting people to try the company's Internet war games -- and to simulate the skirmish that earned Kerry a Silver Star from military records of the event.

Halper said his programmers used "official Navy documents in order to recreate the mission as it was reported." Some of Kuma's other adventures are based on U.S. military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq.

I think this may be in favor of Kerry. It will prove that at least Kerry did serve in Viet Nam and Shrubby didn't. It will remind people of that.
