    He always was a classy guy, stood up for what he believed in. Thoughts and prayers out to his family.

    Amen; RIP John. A celebrated veteran. The North Vietnam folks couldn't ruin him as he was too much of a man for them.

    Heard the other day that he was stopping treatment, didn't realize that it was gonna be the end for him so soon.

    Might not have always agreed with his viewpoints/policies, but did have respect for his integrity.

    RIP Senator McCain.

    Yes, when I read that I figured the end was about here.

    Agreed 100%! I didn't realize that he had a chance to be released as a POW after approx 2yrs, he said no, let the others go home 1st they've been here longer. He will always have my respect and admiration!!
