Swift Boat Veterans for Truth

Swift Boat Veterans for Truth (SBVT) is an advocacy organization formed in 2004 by opponents, some of whom [1] did not agree to participate in the project, of John Kerry's U.S. presidential campaign. Their primary projects have been: their website, the book Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry (released by the conservative Regnery Publishing), and a series of television advertisements challenging John Kerry's military record and activism against the Vietnam War.

The group's credibility has been challenged due to misleading, false or inconsistent statements as portrayed bymistatements from the press. [2] A detailed review of the claims in their book is also available. [3]

The group's name refers to the class of boat on which Kerry and some of the organization's members served in the Vietnam War.
