"PCF 94 beached in center of ambush in front of small path when Viet Cong sprung up from bunker 10 feet from unit. Man ran with weapon towards hootch. Forward M-60 machine gunner wounded man in leg. Officer-in-charge, LTjg Kerry, jumped ashore and gave pursuit while other units saturated area with fire and beached placing assault parties ashore. Kerry chased VC inland behind hootch and shot him while he fled -- capturing one B-40 rocket launcher with round in chamber."

Hmmm...overcoming an ambush using a tactic that Kerry devised...Viet Cong with a rocket launcher killed while trying to escape. Couldn't have been very seriously wounded in the leg if he was running while carrying a rocket launcher. All the VC needed to do was turn around and fire to kill American soldiers.
That's one Viet Cong who couldn't kill any more American soldiers.
And your problem is?
