An officer who served with John Kerry yesterday finally broke his silence about the Swift vets controversy — and said Kerry accidentally wounded himself before requesting his first Purple Heart. In a detailed new account that is certain to fuel the growing controversy, eyewitness William Schachte Jr., a retired rear admiral, told columnist Robert Novak for today's papers that he was "astonished" to hear Kerry's version of the events of Dec. 2, 1968, when Schachte was in command of Kerry aboard a skimmer boat on the Mekong River. Schachte said that Kerry: * Wasn't wounded by hostile fire. * Wasn't even under fire by the enemy. * "Nicked" himself with a grenade launcher and "requested a Purple Heart" afterward. If Schachte's version is accurate, Kerry would not have been eligible for the award, the first of the three Purple Hearts he received.
