Swift Boat Veterans for Truth launched a new line of attack against Kerry on Tuesday, this time focusing on the candidate's decision to throw away medals in protest over the Vietnam War in 1971.

The ad, which began airing on Tuesday in Florida, will also be on the air today in Nashville, where the Democratic nominee is to address the American Legion convention, spokesman Sean McCabe said.

Along with the ad, the group sent the senator a letter urging him "to use this opportunity to clarify your actions in Vietnam and your statements about your fellow Veterans and shipmates when you returned home."
