I was enlisted as an 11B and I'm going to be commissioned soon as a Transportation officer. I call bullshit on your last comment. Do you know that his service has been discussed by people who have been in various Armed Forces. Freaking SF personnel units have discussed him. They all don't question his service. You and I both know that if that comment was true, this would have caused a shit storm. This would have been investigated to the full end. He earned those medals fair and square. His father had nothing to do with it. You can ask his CO that recommended him to be awarded. It sucks that you are shitting on your own brethren. I wasn't even born in this country and it sucks that people are the same everywhere.

I did not say ALL question his service, but many do. What do you think his CO was going to say, "Admiral McCain ordered me to recommend Johnny these awards"? There were many, many other POWs who did not give away all the information they had in order to get preferential treatment (like McCain did) who did not receive awards like these, but they did not have Admirals for fathers.
