Video: Old Soviet Officer Says He Was The One Who Shot John McCain Down Over Vietnam

John McCain’s Vietnam Captor Says He Would Vote For Him

The man who ran the notorious Hanoi Hilton in Vietnam and kept John McCain prisoner for 5 1/2 years is speaking out. Tran Trong Duyet is now 75 years old, but 4 decades ago he was a young Vietnamese soldier who oversaw the incarceration of numerous American POW’s.

In an interview with the BBC, Duyet said of McCain, “He is a very frank man – very conservative, and very loyal to his country and the American ideal.”

Duyet went on to say that he’s followed McCain’s career closely since the war, adding “If I was American, I would vote for him.”
