Kerry's bunk mate in vietnam says the first wound Kerry got was not hostile fire. It was from a grenade launcher that was fired and came close to the boat and kerry got a piece of sharp metal in his arm.. The purple heart is only for hostile fire and there was none that day.

To be precise the Purple Heart Certificate reads,
"For Wounds received in action."
