Lest We Forget!

Here’s a link to an article in US News & World Report from May 1973 in which John McCain gave an account of his 5 1/2 years as a POW in N. Vietnam.) It should be mandatory reading for everyone old enough to vote, in my opinion- Ed.)

Bill, the person who sent in the link said,

“This type of reading should be mandatory for our younger generation voters, older current and former peace-nicks and those citizens who have short memories and tend to forget recent history.”

Thanks, Bill!
Perhaps after reading the article you will better understand why John McCain means what he says when he says I HATE WAR in the video clip you can see by clicking here.

If you haven’t read John McCain’s book Faith of My Fathers, you will find even more than this story. It is very compelling and says a lot about the character of the man.
