    It's pretty true though.

    Being killed as a soldier is the highest honor. Maybe if you're lucky the president will even make a speech for you. Those who suffered as POWs and amputees are also highly elevated, venerated for their sacrifices. But the average soldier that was lucky enough to get through a war unscathed almost seems to never be acknowledge. Maybe its because people think they must have been cowardly in some way to have avoided harm? Or maybe it's just a subconscious thing? Or is their reward for coming back intact the full use of their limbs?

    I dunno. But I want to make a point: I don't think there is a correlation between what a soldier suffers and his valor. Sometimes heroes die, get maimed, get caught. Other times cowards and idiots may suffer the same fate. A soldier who does his job well and without incident is often not noticed, though a screwup who gets blown up can get special consideration.

    So it's hard to say just who is truly deserving of honor here.

    McCain, although I am starkly against him politically, is a war hero because he chose, not told or draft, to fly extremely dangerous missions, then he was asked if he want to be freed, because of his father being an admiral, he refused and preferred to stay with his fellow POWs, and get tortured, that bravery makes him a hero.

    Most military heroes get recognized for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty. I as a Vet. respect all that have served and in a way they are all heroes. However, showing up at the game does not make you a MVP.

    Not a fan of Trump but agree with his position on McCain.

    Trump tells it like it is, he tells the truth.
    But liberal progressives and minority liberal racists would rather be told lies.
    Anything that sounds like peaches and cream, right libs?

    "war hero" is a term usually reserved for a very select group.Mccain is a combat vet and P.O.W. but when you start calling him a "war hero"………..then you're putting him in the same class as audie murphy and john mccain is no audie murphy.

    McCain called ALL Trump supporters "Crazies".
    15,000 were at the Arizona rally and another 12,000+ watched it live on Youtube. Are we all crazies John?

    This is a US Senator who's calling us names don't forget. We pay his salary, and then for him to turn around and bite the hand that feeds him? I don't think so!

    How dare that politician say it as it is. We are not used to that!!! Give us a puppet that we fools are all used to. How dare he tackle issues politicians won't in fear of their political career. One word for all you idiots, it's all about economy. Who ever says otherwise is trying to pull the wool over your eyes
