Kerry was in the Vietnam war. And got shot at.
Kerry was one of a whole lot of people who were in Vietnam and got shot at.
Like Al Gore, for example. No, wait, that was sort of retracted:
" Mr. Gore has occasionally added a splash of color to the tableau when describing his military service. Years ago, he told reporters he was shot
at in Vietnam when he was not -- an exaggeration that may have been less an attempt to mislead than to make his experience more vivid.
When asked about those statements, Mr. Gore said only this, "I wasn't shot
at, but I was in areas where there was firing.""
