"On Feb. 28, 1969, Kerry's boat received word that a swift boat was being
ambushed. As Kerry raced to the scene, his boat became another target, as a
Viet Cong B-40 rocket blast shattered a window. Kerry could have ordered his
crew to hit the enemy and run. But the skipper had a more aggressive reaction
in mind. Beach the boat, Kerry ordered, and the craft's bow was quickly rammed
upon the shoreline. Out of the bush appeared a teenager in a loin cloth,
clutching a grenade launcher. "

Doing everything against military proceedure.
