From your source: "The details of the event for which he was given the
Silver Star make no sense at all. Supposedly, a B-40 was fired at the
boat and missed. Charlie jumps up with the launcher in his hand, the bow
gunner knocks him down with the twin .50, Kerry beaches the boat, jumps
off, shoots Charlie, and retrieves the launcher. If true, he did
everything wrong."

LOL, I suggest you go back and read the article at Snopes. Hint, the gray
boxed article is what is later proven false.

A launcher that has fired the round is not loaded. An RPG launcher holds
only one round. So Kerry shot an unarmed, wounded soldier. Sounds like
courage to me!
