LOL. Kerry got one of PHs for shooting himself in the butt with an exploding store of rice.
Unfit for Command: All of Kerry’s PHs were questionable. Especially the first one.
...Kerry got one of his PHs for shooting himself in the butt...
Corporal Archie Miller of Portsmouth, Ohio was finally ordered home when he received his 5th Purple Heart in 1945. While actually in battle, under enemy fire, and fighting aggressively unlike John Kerry, Miller was wounded 2 times by sniper fire, 2 times by mortar fire, and was last wounded by a Japanese hand grenade.
His wife said he was too tough to die.

It is embarrassing to even mention Lurch in the same context as this brave man.
