You still don't get it.

McCain's father's active duty status with the U.S. military defined his jurisdiction. Therefore McCain was a citizen by birth and possibly even a "natural born" citizen as well. Military officers remain subject to the full jurisdiction of the U.S. military and under the direct control of the U.S. chain of command regardless of where they go.

You clearly have a serious problem when it comes to language comprehension.

First, the term "jurisdiction" in the Fourteenth Amendment refers specifically to the person born. Not their parents. "All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof..."

Second, in order to be anything other than a naturalized citizen, you must have been born IN the United States. If you were born outside the United States, then any issue with regard to jurisdiction is moot. Because if you weren't born in the United States, you can't be anything other than a naturalized citizen if you're a citizen at all.
