According to the post above, Kerry fired a grenade at the shoreline, and suffered a self-inflicted wound. We don't know the exact circumstances of the event, except that his commander says there was no enemy action at the time, and Kerry was not entitled to a purple heart as a result of his wound.

Kerry seesm more and more like the Slick Willie we saw faking tears outside of Ron Brown's funeral. A man who would use self-inflicted wounds to improperly punch his ticket home, and then slander and endanger his fellow soldiers while they were still fighting is truly immoral --and dangerous.

This will make two books that Kerry demands should not be allowed on the shelf.
The first one was the book he wrote in the '70s.

That's the funny thing really. I'm sure they thought they were releasing good fitreps but have no clue about how the military works.

We see the same thing with all of the "quagmire" nonsense every time our military pauses for a breath in any operation. The Left and their media lackeys spend so much time fearing/looking down on/mistrusting the military, that they have no idea how capable we are.

Not purposeful, sounds like a "Hold Muh Bloody Mary" moment, shooting off guns 'n' stuff.

"They hired a goddamn private investigator to dig up trash!" charged a top Kerry adviser traveling with the senator late Tuesday

The trash can only be dug up if it's there. In this case there appears to be a landfill full of it.

Maybe Drudge means an "embargo" of missing press about Kerry's VietNam skeletons.

The recently published book on Kerry- " John F Kerry, The Complete Biography By The Boston Globe Reporters Who Know Him Best,"
is another treasure trove of goodies.
Naturally ignored by the media.
And not mentioned in the " Saving Private Hamster " video shown at the DNC.
Oh, the heroics.

Page 96:
" Medeiros and Kerry rushed ashore and found what they thought was a Vietcong guerilla inside a bunker.
"Kerry called down into the darkness..a grenade was thrown inside."
" The two assumed an enemy had been killed, although Medeiros said he never saw the victim and
now wonders
whether it could have been an animal."

Page 105 :

" At one point, Kerry and Rasmussen threw grenades into a huge rice cache that had been captured from the Vietcong.."
"After tossing the grenades, the two dove for cover."
"Rasmussen escaped the ensuing explosion of rice, but ,Kerry was not so lucky-
thousands of grains stuck to him."

Page 85 :
Kerry writes in his diary, called " War Notes."

" A woman holds her baby tight against her bare breast and nipple firm,
gives life;
my voice asks where she is going and unabashed
she bares her breast
to replace the youngster's fumbling, tiny lips.."

Crimony!

"For example, the fabled and distinguished chief of naval operations (CNO), Admiral Elmo Zumwalt, told me -- 30 years ago when he was still CNO -- that during his own command of US naval forces in Vietnam, just prior to his anointment as CNO, young Kerry had created great problems for him and the other top brass, by killing so many non-combatant civilians and going after other non-military targets.

"We had virtually to straight-jacket him to keep him under control," the admiral said. "Bud" Zumwalt got it right when he assessed Kerry as having large ambitions -- but promised that his career in Vietnam would haunt him if he were ever on the national stage.
"
