WASHINGTON – Arizona Sen. John McCain, who served more than five years as a prisoner of war in Vietnam and 2008 Republican presidential nominee, serving Arizona for more than 30 years on Capitol Hill, died Saturday aged 81.
McCain a former Vietnam POW and Navy pilot, was a powerful figure in Washington in his six terms as Arizona senator and twice ran for president. He died at 4:28 p.m., his office announced. His wife, daughter and other family members were besides with him on the fateful day.
McCain will be remembered among the political giants of Arizona history. The six-term U.S. senator disclosed last year in July that he had been diagnosed with a deadly form of brain cancer called glioblastoma.
McCain’s political journey famed him as a 
man, he advocated for boots on ground, some critics in other parts of the world and United States as well called him a warmonger. McCain, one way or another advocated to intervene militarily in Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Kosovo, Ukraine, Yemen, Syria and also a prisoner of war in Vietnam. People of these countries shares a different views and will remember him as a war agent instead of a peacemaker.
The long standing polical career of Sen. John McCain has earned a position at the front of the line because of the suffering and sacrifice he had made on behalf of his country as a prisoner of war in Vietnam. Notwithstanding, United States lost vietnam war badly as historical fact suggests.
McCain’s daughter and a TV Commentator, Meghan McCain wrote Saturday on her twitter handle “I love you forever — my beloved father.”
