Benedict Arnold lost a leg fighting for the USA in the Revolution before he turned traitor. Kerry got 3 scratches and used them to get an early ride home. Now he wants to use then for a free ride into the Presidency.

Arnold did not lose a leg. His leg was severely injured at Saratoga. There is a monument to his leg, but it does not bear his name.
Arnold was posted to West Point partly to enable him to recover. Alas, his wife had convinced him by then. Had he only married better, he could have been President.
