Did Kerry ever say this about killing in Vietnam?

Kerry was compelled to pander to a fear driven culture easily manipulated by a national security state and their enablers within the corporatist media. I cringed when Kerry boasted, "I've killed people in war ... personally." He was desperate to break through and did what it took. Hence, Kerry's stature was easily diminished and once again a lesser man prevailed.





I thought the only time he said anything remotely like this was in the 1996 debate with Weld when he said "I know something about killing" in response to a question on the death penalty, but admittedly, I wasn't paying attention to every single word he said in '03/'04, so maybe I missed this. I only remember him saying "I will hunt down and kill the terrorists". I was under the impression he is uncomfortable talking that frankly about his experience about Vietnam.
