John Sr. was a very successful admiral in WWII - commanded all allied land-based air power in the South Pacific, was Deputy CNO (Air) for a time, swapped Fast Carrier Task Force command off and on with Mitscher. John Jr. was a successful sub commander during the war, and was awarded Silver and Bronze stars. John III was actually the least successful "John S. McCain."

He was CINCPACFLT, which means Commander in Chief, Pacific Fleet, the largest US fleet Way beyond being a "sub commander." He was CINCPACFLT during his son's POW time.

Punching Bag Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 18 hours ago, PastaJoe said: The family has asked GW Bush and Obama to deliver eulogies. Probably his wish to show unity to the nation, and a last poke at Trump. He was actually friends with both of them and respected both of them. Not a poke for he never was friends with the US Czar nor respected him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start a McCain hate thread in PPP if you’re going to be a classless jerk. Are you clueless, my statement was in support of McCain’s decision to include the former presidents, and exclude the man who said he wasn’t a hero. The classless people are those who still support Trump after his classless statement, and now offer thoughts and prayers. “Two Republicans familiar with the planning said that Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama have been asked to offer eulogies at his funeral. Under initial plans for Mr. McCain’s funeral, Vice President Mike Pence was to attend, but not President Trump, who clashed repeatedly with Mr. McCain.” https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/25/us/politics/john-mccain-funeral.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
