Code of Conduct for Members of the United States Armed Forces
http://www.au.af.mil/au/awc/awcgate/readings/code_of_conduct2.htmArticle 3:If I am captured I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.
The talking heads are morons-John McCain is a hero, but if he agreed to be returned home after capture he would have been court martialed for conduct unbecoming. It is plenty enough that he flew aircraft in combat but saying yes to early release is a no-no even for the lowliest private and would have ruined the life of the son of a navy admiral...

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
