I have a personal friend who knows the doc that treated Kerry for the "wound" that he fanagled getting a purple heart for.
It was self inflicted, the oaf shot a grenade out of a grenade launcher at shoreline rocks and a tiny piece stuck in his skin. He did not pull the sliver out himself, but rather sought do document his "war wound" by gettng the doc to flick it out and slap a barely needed bandaid on it.
As far as I've seen, Snopes is full of baloney. Here's an example of an urban myth Snope is trying to create:

[scrolling down to Parks]
" 7. Jerry Parks - former security team member for Governor Clinton. Prior to his death he had compiled an extensive file on Clinton's activities. His family had reported being followed and his home broken into just before being gunned down at a deserted intersection.
On 26 September 1993, Luther (Jerry) Parks was hit with ten bullets from a 9-mm semiautomatic handgun as he left a Mexican restaurant at the edge of Little Rock. His murder remains unsolved.
Parks' security company guarded Clinton's campaign headquarters in 1992. Parks' son, Gary, asserts in Circle of Power and The Clinton Chronicles (both video products of Linda Thompson's American Justice Federation) that his father collected a secret file of Clinton's indiscretions, and that his father was using the file to try to blackmail the Clinton campaign. (He also claims that Vince Foster knew of the file's existence.) Despite these allegations, the younger Parks has failed to produce the mysterious file, and Clyde Steelman, the homicide sergeant with the Little Rock police force, dismissed Gary Parks' theories of his father's death as "unsubstantiated, nothing to grasp." A far more likely suspect in the murder is Jerry Parks' former partner, with whom Parks had quarreled bitterly."
First off, it is not mentioned that Parks predicted his own murder the day he heard about Vince Foster's death. I heard his son mention it in the notorious "Clinton Chronicles". Sure, try to refute that video, but his son was there, on film, saying that his father predicted his own death, and that Clinton-related documents were burglarized at the same time. Sure enough, he died a few months later. Snopes is full of baloney regarding the Clinton death count. I just picked that one out of the blue. Snopes does no serious research regarding the Clinton body count and says it can't be so simply because it can't be so. It is a knee-jerk pile of rubbish.
