Flight Hero
Please explain how John McCain is a war hero?
he was a POW, I don't get it, how is that a hero, didn't he also blow up some Air Craft Carrier the Orinsky when he shot one of is missles off while he was in his jet on the flight deck
No, he did not blow up the Oriskany. It was from the Oriskany that his plane was launched when he was shot down and taken POW.
He was however, aboard the USS Forrestal and somewhat involved in the fire aboard that ship. He was on deck at that time, sitting in his plane waiting for his shot on the catapult when a rocket from another plane accidentally launched. McCain's plane was lit up as a result and he escaped the buring plane.
John McCain is a genuine war hero. He was brutally beaten while he was a POW and yet he did not cave into coersion by the enemy.
Both John McCain's father and grandfather were in thier time, Admiralty in the US Navy (his grandfather having played a pretty prominent role in the Pacific during WWII). In fact, John McCain's father at the time was Commander-In-Chief of U.S. Pacific Command. (To the North Viet-namese, this made John McCain somewhat of like royalty to them, the "crown prince" they called him and that made him all the better to beat the crap out of and torture.)
When the North Viet-namese found this out, they offered to release John McCain (believing that it would help them diplomatically but also they would be able to use it for their own propaganda purposes). John McCain refused to leave his fellow POWs. Having survived, 5-years or so in that Hanoi hell hole would break anyone. He refused to leave his 'shipmates' behind.
That's pretty damned heroic.

| | Hero - Fullscreen $8.99 Stephen Frears' Hero is a contemporary re-working of a Frank Capra-styled fable about a two-bit criminal named Bernie (Dustin Hoffman) who saves several passengers from a plane crash and leaves the scene without being identified, leaving only a lost shoe for identification. One of the passengers happens to be news-reporter Gale (Geena Davis) who is intent on finding her savior, and offers a million dollars to the "hero" of the crashed flight. Bernie has since given his remaining shoe to a homeless man named John (Andy Garcia) who decides to cash in on the offer. A handsome, charming man, John wins the hearts of the entire city. Soon, Bernie realizes that he's been cheated out of a million dollars, and he begins an effort to get his proper recognition--and his money. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi |
