McCain was an A-4 pilot. I think this is BS.

Nice story but McCain was flying an A-4 Skyhawk not an F-4 Phantom.

There has never been any official acknowledgment that Soviet soldiers served in Vietnam on the side of the communist North Vietnamese in the 1960s and 1970s. However, Trushyekin, currently in a hospital in Russia's second city of St. Petersburg, had no qualms about speaking about his time in the jungles of Southeast Asia.

"I got to Vietnam at the time when there were mixed units with Vietnamese," he said, adding that he had served as an officer in a missile unit.

My father said that we regularly overheard Russian technicians in Vietnam manning their missile sites.

Lying Commies.

Cool. Except that McCain didn’t fly the F-4. And there’s no mistaking an F-4 for A-4 from any angle.

He spent five and a half years in a POW camp, and claims that he was tortured.

Bunk.

And here I thought the Russians were only advisors.

The only problem is that McCain flew a Sky Hawk, not an F4.

The story claims F-4s were shot down. McCain’s plane was an A-4, a much smaller aircraft and no way mistaken for and F-4.

We shot him down once before and we just did it again.
