His anti-war comments, how he stabbed his fellow soldiers in that back with his damning testimony, and oh yeah... THE $87 BILLION IN FUNDING FOR THE TROOPS HE VOTED AGAINST AND HIS 20+ YEAR RECORD OF VOTING AGAINST MILITARY ADVANCEMENTS AND RESEARCH. Its the same advancements and research that he voted against that keep American troops alive.
Now Kerry says how he will give the troops proper equipment, when his entire voting history contradicts these empty statements. The military are not stupid and they aren't going to accept a poltician at his word. Actions speak louder.
