John McCain, Prisoner of War: A First-Person Account

If you aren’t familiar with the story of John McCain’s capture and torture by the North Vietnamese, I highly recommend this article at US News, a reprint of McCain’s first-person account originally published in 1973: John McCain, Prisoner of War: A First-Person Account - US News and World Report.

I was aware of what happened to McCain but not all the details, and have gained an enormous respect for him after reading this article.
