This is the wire report that came out in April - of a doctor summarizing the medical reports.

"Shrapnel" left inside him didn't cause him to miss a day of action?

Thigh? Maybe he means "brain".

...but he noted that Kerry was in danger of serious injury several times.

What the hell kind of dumbassed statement is that?

Everybody who was over there qualified for a medal, given that criteria.

Heck, I deserve a medal for braving Minneapolis traffic every day.

It must have caused pain to push it in deep.

I have a piece of rock in my knee from when I fell on a cinder track when I was in grade school.

If you look real hard, you can still see the black piece under the skin.

I didn't miss any school for the injury and was not awarded a medal for bravery.

I have heard a couple of times that "non-specific urinary tract infection" in military reports generally means the clap.

(Just going on hearsay - I could be wrong.)

Doyle said if the shrapnel had hit Kerry in the eye, it could have blinded him.

And if it had hit him in the testicles ...............

Sorry, stupid statement in the article.
