McCain collaborated with America's enemies before: U.S. Secretary of the Navy Asked to Recall McCain's Medals News/Current Events News Keywords: MCCAIN, MEDALS, RECALL Source: Online Published: February 6, 2000 Author: Joe L. Jordan, Navy Squadron VQ-1 (Ret.) Posted on 02/07/2000 11:21:17 PST by jimgib Hon. Richard Danzig U.S. SECRETARY OF THE NAVY 1000 Navy Pentagon Washington DC 20350-1000 Dear Secretary Danzig: We are adding our voice to the chorus of veteran's groups calling for the combat decorations of Senator John McCain to be revoked. National newspaper columns by Col. David Hackworth and former Green Beret Ted Sampley have pointed out that to get the Silver Star and other decorations, the sworn testimony of two witnesses is required. Why were these requirements waived only for Senator Mccain and his 28 medals? Is it because he is the son of a 4-star Admiral? The medals awarded are questionable in themselves as they reward McCain for his alleged "Outstanding Resistance" while a prisoner of war (POW) in Hanoi. McCain has admitted he collaborated and gave vital secrets about the Aircraft Carriers Oriskany and Forrestal in order to get a hospital operation for wounds he received when he ejected. McCain was still signing "War criminal confessions" and making radio broadcasts to American pilots and soldiers urging them to surrender and refuse orders to fight five years after his wounds healed. Also, returned POWs USAF Colonels Larson and Guy say they doubt McCain was ever tortured at any time in any way. McCain returned from captivity weighing 10 pounds heavier than when captured. There is a picture of him eating a large meal in the Foreign Ministry where he allowed himself to be interviwed for a newspaper article he knew would be published in Havana. He was wearing a jogging suit under his prison pajamas. No other returned POW said they received hospital surgery, got a jogging suit for the cold winter or had a big meal in the Foreign Ministry. So much for McCain's "Outstanding Resistance in Keeping with the Navy's Highest Traditions"! Secretary Danzig, from your window you can gaze over Arlington National Cemetary — full of real heroes and brave men who earned their medals the hard way, the honest way and we owe these men our highest regards and respect. To allow John McCain to keep his is a travesty and a desecration to all veterans everywhere living and dead. McCain's posession of these medals renders my own worthless. We demand a full investigation of this matter as to why strict Navy Regulations were flagrantly violated and that his medals be returned to your desk pending the outcome of the investigation. Joe L.
