I barely remember JFKennedy murder, I was in first grade. I remember a military buddy of my father's from Korea coming by for a visit, he had just returned from Vietnam as a non-armed military adviser. His stories were frightening of what he went through.
None in my immediate family were of age to serve, but I had cousins that were sent to Vietnam. One is barely a remnant of who he was physically and mentally, they say it was from 'agent orange', some could say he is still a POW.
We live in such a PC age that to accurately describe events is always weighted without balance.
Actually I think McCain's method of self promotion is every bit as sinister as the other two, because he will seek revenge upon those who he believes have not given or shown him the respect and honor he earned.

Your mention of McCain and the revenge he reserves for those thought insufficiently respectful....
Excellent point. After all, who showed the greatest disrespect to McCain than a certain George W. Bush, who trounced him in the South Carolina primary in 2000. Denied McCain the presidency. Revenge is in order.
Just look at how McCain has behaved ever since.
