I do!Anyone remember when he got caught buying an AR-15? Then he claimed that he only did it to prove how easy it was.
On McCains shoot down, any one have any insight to the validity of this article?
BTW that video is an obvious fake...
I haven’t had time to read the whole article yet, but the Flight Leader, Bryan Compton (whom McCain blamed for his getting shot down) certainly felt that McCain was the one responsible for it (I’ve seen him say so in an interview).On McCains shoot down, any one have any insight to the validity of this article?

Yes. As I recall, McCain blamed him because he made them make three passes over the target. I think the first two the target was obscured by clouds, and McCain thought it was insane to make a third pass, but the clouds did part for the third one. Been a long time, so I may not be remembering correctly.Compton is mentioned in high regard in that article.

Article states a Burt Shepherd as leader of the flight group, I don't know wasn't even born yet, but this is the most detailed account I could find on it. Seems its also disputed if he was hit by a Sam or AAA.Yes. As I recall, McCain blamed him because he made them make three passes over the target.

Here is some shit to piss you off about McCain - as if you need more.
Why is McShitstain always involved in treason with Democrats?
Isn't that the retard who had a pit bull at the beach, in San Diego? It attacked a baby seal and someone got video of him trying to yank the pit bull loose from the seal.
Yea, that was him.
Yea, he's the kind of guy who makes good decisions. We should definitely listen to him.
A CBS report on it:
As I said, I saw that show a long time ago, but this article lists Compton as the Leader. It also states the target was obscured by a smoke screen (not clouds, as I had mis-remembered). It doesn’t say anything about three runs, but the show I watched made that a focal point.Article states a Burt Shepherd as leader of the flight group, I don't know wasn't even born yet, but this is the most detailed account I could find on it.

Kelley is garbage
Yes, I agree. My recollection of the interview was Compton responding to McClain’s blame: “Well, I was on the same run and “I” didn’t get shot down…”That isn’t a blameable offense.
That’s it’s a shitty mission boys but we came to do a job.
He should have went to the Cessna Academy if he wanted to get a say in choosing missions.
I believe it states he led an August attack, but doesn't mention him leading the October raid when McCain was shot down. He does state his Aircraft was struck by a SAM. Thanks for sharing that, I have always enjoyed reading/learning about aviation history.

“As Compton’s squadron barreled toward the target in the A4 attack jets, the North Vietnamese put up the smoke screen and poured anti-aircraft fire at the Americans. McCain’s jet went into the conflagration. It didn’t come out.”
