Heard of this for the 1st time today. Apparantly John Kerry's book "The New Soldier" had a cover photo of some unkept looking folks mocking the classic photo of soldiers raising the flag on Iwa Jima (7000 Americans died in that battle). Apparantly the photo raises a lot of ire in many vets.
Here is an interesting link talking about how this book has strangely become hard to find.

I noticed that although Amazon has it they do not show the cover photo. I don't know if is valid or not. Just thought it was interesting
