Audie Murphy was a war hero. Dakota Meyer is a war hero. Marcus Luttrel is a war hero. Just because you get captured does not mean you are a war hero.

I have respect for McCain for enduring the torture and not going home early. Other than that the mission of war is to kill the enemy. How many enemy did McCain kill?

Sorry but I think anyone will to put his life on his line by serving in the military is a hero. Anyone who fights for his country in a war is a hero. Anyone who is captured while engaged in combat is a hero. The four Marines and the sailor from Thursday are heroes. They are people who are prepared to lay down their lives at any given moment to protect my freedom and your freedom. That makes them heroes in my book and I'm sorry you don't feel the same way. And because they serve and I didn't then I think that makes me unqualified to criticize their service to this country in any way. And I'm sorry Trump is too much of an arrogant ass to feel the same.
