Any pilot that tells you he's never been lost is either lying or he's never been anywhere.

McCain was actually one of the pilots rescued during this fire if I remember correctly.

Yeah, and then, when it was all over and the Forestal was going to head home for repairs, he requested to ship over to the Oriskiny to finish his combat tour. So much for not being a hero  :angry:
