Top Cop Says McCain Was Never Tortured Former Vietnam vet with top
secret clearance - Republican frontrunner is "a lying skunk"

Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet Thursday, February 7th, 2008

A former Vietnam veteran with top secret clearance says he has
personally spoken to numerous POW's who dispute John McCain's claim
that he refused to provide information after he was captured and
tortured in Hanoi, saying that in fact McCain's code-name was
"Songbird" because of his willingness to tell all to avoid torture.

Sam Walton's, of Walmarts fame, son died last year in an airplane accident.
Was a Marine medic with a Silver Star in Vietnam. Have to have respect for
the guy. Plus anybody with the money he had that built homebuilt airplanes
had to have some cajones.

Not to take anything away from the Marines, but "Marine Medics" were/are
actually Navy Hospital Corpsman who are attached to the fleet Marines.

Realize that. My buddy is a former medic in VN. First tour as a medic,
next two as a Phantom driver. Retired light bird. But the ones attached to
the Marines, went through Marine training and were then attached to Marine
units.

The combat Navy Hospital Corpsman is the only Navy rating that Marines have
ultimate respect for and they don't call them "squids". It's one of the
most dangerous ratings in the military.
They earn the title "Doc" for a lifetime.

Actually my buddy is a real "Doc" After the 3 tours in the lovely lands of
SEA, he returned and ended up at Walter Reed in a MD program. So now he has
an MD, and a Phd.
