<<Did the Grunts in Vietnam hate the "flyboys , Glory boys"?
<<I don't think so , certainly not the ones that benefited from close air support.>>
Nobody had close air support in WWII? I suspect that most grunts did not hate fliers enough to shoot at them, but there probably was a minority in both wars who did. I don't think the anecdote of WWII G.I.s shooting at their own planes was relevant to the story in any major way, so it's not worth debating. In the campaign against McSame's fake "war hero" status, that little anecdote probably won't ever be used. Because it's just totally unnecessary.
<<Did McCain operate from a safe and comfortable location?
<<There is a film of McCain crawling across his burning Aircraft to escape the huge fire that the USS Forestall suffered in the Gulf of Tonkin.>>
The guy had a fire where he lived. BFD. Every day before and after the fire, he lived in a safe and comfortable location compared to the living accommodations of the grunts.
<<Did the Vietrnameese save his life? I didn't hear before about the swimmer who dragged him ashore ,could be true, I guess it was a diffrent Vietnameese that Bayoneted him.>>
I've read it more than once before and it just makes his professed hatred of the Vietnamese all that much more despicable and irrational. Especially when one considers the agony of the Vietnamese under a rain of U.S. napalm, the attitude of the Vietnamese who bayoneted him (if it ever in fact happened) is a lot more understandable than the attitude of the Vietnamese who saved his miserable war-criminal ass.
<<Does this article admit that no medical attention was given to POWs ? >>
So what if it does? The issue is the fake claim that McSame lays to being a "war hero." That can't be affected one way or the other with how the Vietnamese treated war criminals like McSame.
<<That McCain was an exception and got qualified care would prove that they did this from spite . . . >>
Bullshit. It would prove that he was rewarded for his collaboration, obviously.
<< . . . but I doubt that his care was all that qualified he had a broken arm and it was not professionally splinted , how competant does medical care have to be for that?>>
His arm looks OK to me. Wonder if he'd like it examined by a panel of independent medical experts to see just how bad his care was. Our friend's broken wrist was improperly splinted right here in a Toronto hospital and it's slightly angled permanently. If McSame feels his medical care was sub-par, why doesn't he sue his Vietnamese doctors? Or maybe he'd have to present some objective medical proof of his "injuries" that wouldn't jibe with his fake claims.
<<Most of the PoWs McCain was interred with were pilots or aircrew , most of them had the tipical treatment of haveing their ankles tied to their neck , I don't think that McCain is the only one to report the presence of "Fidel" and I don't expect this dog to hunt.>>
Next thing you'll be telling us that "most of the POWs McSame was interned with" also made propaganda broadcasts for the Vietnamese and gave up valuable inside information on attack patterns, altitudes, etc., as the article states. As this stuff comes out on the internet over the course of the campaign, the MSM will have to pick it up sooner or later to save their own credibility, and it'll have to make a big difference. McSame had a pretty easy ride as a "war hero" so far, but that ride's coming to an end real soon.
