Interesting read about McCain and the Forrestal

Thank you for that article - has the ring of truth to it.

BTW - "Representation without Taxation" is our bigger problem.

I did my first cruise in 1968/69 as a newbe naval avaitor, I heard all of those stories about McCain in ready rooms, mess,and idle chit chat.
It was said at the time that McCain actually shot himself down by releasing his bomb load too low.
His leaving the ship without orders would be considered desertion. This void between his leaving the ship visiting his daddy Admiral in London smacks of pleading to daddy to get him out of a jam (again).
And then is his actions while a POW, he collaborated pure and simple.
