Self inflicted butt wound
Many on this site are aware of Kerry’s fake PH’s. All 3 faked to get home early. My old boss was CO of the IV Corps Mike Force. Kerry was on OPS with their airboat company. I went back to college to complete my degree with the CO of that airboat company.
i read because he carelessly wounded himself and others
“While Kerry claims the injury came from shrapnel from an underwater mine, Larry Thurlow, an officer on shore with Kerry that day, insists the wound was the result of Kerry’s decision to throw a concussion grenade into a rice pile. The “shrapnel,” he says, was actually rice pellets.
As further evidence, the vets say, Kerry himself reflected in his own journal that his buttocks’ wound came, not from a mine but, rather, from a grenade tossed into a rice cache.
“Seeing movement from an unknown source, the sailors opened fire on the movement,” the letter says. “There was no hostile fire. When Kerry’s rifle jammed, he picked up an M-79 grenade launcher and fired a grenade at a nearby object. This sprayed the boat with shrapnel from Kerry’s own grenade, a tiny piece of which embedded in Kerry’s arm.”

I don’t know if any of that was true- just that it was published in a book, and others testified to the fact that kerry got medal despite there being no hostile fire in the area at the time he claims he was wounded-
He got the Silver Star for executing an incapacitated Viet Cong.
