Good pilots from Vietnam war routinely evaded SAM’s (surface to air missile) fired at them.

So,IOW,every O-3...O-4...O-5 and O-6 (Air Force,Navy *and* Marines) at the Hanoi Hilton was a lousy pilot? As I've stated above I have absolutely *no* tales of exceptional skill...or *any* level of bravery...to tell when describing my time in uniform.You,OTOH,clearly do...given the swagger of your comments.

Perhaps you'd like to share them with us.

What McCain did required guts. No doubt about that. What Trump did requires a complete lack of any sense of decency. No doubt about that.

It is not about my record or your record. It is about the difference between a prisoner of war and a war hero. Getting shot down and captured is never an act of extraordinary skill or bravery. See my tag line.
