New Film released By the Swedes Showing McCain’s release in 1973 to the US Military in Hanoi.
From Yahoo:
Swedish broadcaster SVT on Thursday released a previously unseen film clip purportedly showing the release of presidential candidate John McCain to the U.S. military in Hanoi in 1973.
A former SVT reporter, Erik Eriksson, said he found the video in the network’s archives when he was looking for footage for a book he was writing about his experiences as a war correspondent in Vietnam.
SVT posted the edited 39-second clip on its Web site on Thursday. It shows McCain stepping off a bus with other prisoners. He has a pronounced limp but is not using crutches.
It then shows McCain standing in a lineup when his name is called. He walks up to salute and shake hands with U.S. military officers. The last part of the clip shows a U.S. Air Force jet taxiing on a runway.

thank you very much….I complain about overseas flights because I don’t get enough leg room…it was a different generation…that does not look like the face of a man that has been mistreated at best and tortured at worst for over 5 years….

So does this mean that McBush didn’t need to use the crutches he later used when he met Nixon?
