Jochen,

Yes, Kerry wound up in combat. But it seems that his actual record was somewhat less heroic than the glowing reports he send back to headquarters. Then he collected three Purple Hearts for scratches and left combat in a hurry.

Then Kerry joined VVAW and told the Senate, in his best Kennedy accent (quite different from his current accent, btw) that Vietnam was a war that produced no heroes, only millions of war criminals, on a daily basis and known to everybody.

Now thirty years later, he has discovered that Vietnam did produce exactly ONE hero - himself!

I don't think that anybody should be surprised that there is a large contingent of veterans who hate Kerry's guts. Especially Vietnam veterans. These men were spat on for baby-killers when they returned home.
