As I said, I know several, personally. I have asked and you are quite right. One or two don’t care much for McCain, but that attitude may not come from Hanoi. Like many professional military officers, they don’t like how he leveraged with POW status into a political career. I’m in that crowd, but I can’t speak to his POW days.

As far as I have been able to determine, neither James Mulligan, Jim Stockdale nor Jeremiah Denton considered McCain to have behaved dishonorably while he was a POW. I was not there to witness his behavior - they were. Their opinions on that issue are [more than] good enough for me.

However, I do think John McCain has behaved dishonorably as a U.S. senator. My own eyes and ears tell me that.
