McCain suffered at the hands of the Viet Cong.

Incorrect. McCain was a prisoner in Hanoi. The VC were not in charge of the prisoner camps in Hanoi. The NVA, North Vietnamese Army was. The VC were terrorists in the south.

“McCain suffered at the hands of the Viet Cong.
Incorrect. McCain was a prisoner in Hanoi.”

To be fair to Dixiechick2000- If I know my history, McCain was pulled out of a lake by people who may have been or were reportedly VC. They broke his shoulder and knifed him in the groin before they had him out of his flight suit.
