When I was a young child, a great man once told me.  “The worth of a man is in his actions and that every man must have a purpose; the urging from within to get up every day and do something good, or he will become nothing.

John McCain was a   prisoner of war and lived the oath he took in serving his country.

Thank You, John McCain, for your service, may you Rest in Peace.
