He served his country as a Naval aviator and endured torture at the hands of his North Vietnamese captors which affected his health for the rest of his life. Returning home, he continued to serve his country in the House and Senate with principles, honesty and integrity and he earned the respect of his colleagues on both sides of the aisle. John McCain was a giant, stood for what was right and stared down bullies. He was a patriot who loved his country and his country mourns his passing. He will be missed. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
