I'm certain Jack McCain would have preferred that his father was the one giving the commencement address.

(There's the pitch for those of you who would like to make the obvious rebuttal.)

Maybe the SS and USNA are trying to protect John McCain?

His son may be thinking "four years in theis hell hole, and now sea duty....It's all your fault Dad. I could have been a ballet dancer."

Well....when it's all said & done...these Swordless Young People are the finest our Country has to offer....may they remain strong, lead from the front, and keep those under their charge safe.

Happy Memorial Day to all.
