Yes, the Uniform is a Badge of Honor and unfortunately a target as well, something stupid McCain can't figure out!
He blew up one of our own aircraft carriers with his stupidity and arrogance and doesn't deserve the honor of being Commander in Chief!

I am not familiar with this blowing up an aircraft carrier. What is it about?

Blaming the Forrestal accident on McCain is a stretch, as it was his plane that was hit by a misfired missile from another aircraft on the flight deck, not the other way around.  However, there is a version of events that lays at least some of the blame on McCain.

BUSH LIKELY BLACKMAILING McCAIN OVER DEADLY NAVAL ACCIDENTS

However, I have heard folks who flew with him over Vietnam say that he was one of the worst pilots ever and would have been grounded except for who his father was.  In addition they mostly say he wasn't shot down but suffered a "controlled flight into terrain" accident.
