Kerry used the mine incident and linked it to the "wounds" on his buttocks, which actually were due to Rassman and him throwing grenades into some sampans filled with rice in another incident. Kerry didn't move quick enough and got it in the butt. The casualty report makes it seem as though the mine caused the wounds. I doubt if the contusion would have won it alone, but then Kerry was able to use other self-inflicted wounds to get medals.

Perhaps Kerry got a second butt wound from the second mine.
