Evidently, Kerry did not run fast enough. "He got some frags and pieces of rice in his rear end," Rassmann said with a laugh... An unsigned "personnel casualty report," however, erroneously implies that Kerry suffered "shrapnel wounds in his left buttocks" later in the day, following the mine explosion
Is this the shrapnel in his leg referred to in his current ad?
Well unless he was wounded twice in the ass on the same day it is. And no one including Kerry has claimed he was wounded twice that day.
These contradictions (between his book and his medal citation) have been known for a long time yet the media has never even investigated it at all
