A Russian officer who participated in the war in Vietnam has admitted that he was the one who shot down McCain's airplane. He was an officer of a SAM battery in a mixed unit of Vietnamese and Soviet soldiers and officers.
He mentions that McCain was lucky, as normally American pilots were beaten to death with picks and shovels.
