Roses look kind of sickly. Someone should pick up another dozen.

Won’t disparage the guy as I didn’t serve at all.

Well at least not on this thread. I’ve destroyed him on others.

Memorial to a parachuting flyer at a Hanoi lake:

This memorial is not explicitly TO McCain, however that lake in the background IS the one he parachuted into after being shot down over Hanoi.

WHAT did he do to earn this commemoration, I wonder..?

I’d have thought it would look more urinalish.

Such a collection of junk would not be allowed at a National Cemetery.

You have no idea what the nickels on the marker signify, do you?

...

That looks to be due to a lot of foot traffic.

What do the coins on gravestones mean?

Leaving a penny at the grave means simply that you visited. A nickel indicates that you and the deceased trained at boot camp together, while a dime means you served with him in some capacity. By leaving a quarter at the grave, you are telling the family that you were with the soldier when he was killed.

Did somebody drop a small container of Chilli Powder next to the grave? It’s on the left side, next to that second blue ribbon. Oh well, the wind will tend to blow things around on a grassy plane.

“He’s dead.”

That says it for me too. Don’t know what sins he carried with him when he passed, but I trust God to assess his life and assign his fate accordingly.
