Kerry directed the boat to charge the enemy position. Beaching his boat, Kerry jumped off, chased the wounded insurgent behind a thatched hutch, and killed him. Kerry and his crew returned within days, armed with a Super 8 video camera he had purchased at the post exchange at Cam Ranh Bay, and reenacted the skirmish on film."

If this is true, unless he can prove the guy was still an active threat (those boats had .50s right, would any man still have any fight in him after being hit by a .50?), this stinks of a war crime. Last I checked, we were not allowed to simply kill enemy wounded that were no longer active threats. There is a word for this at the tip of my tongue - murder, that's it.
