Quoted from Travish:Deleted post
Yeah, two websites, two completely different stories on what happened on the USS Forrestal.
I'm not defending McCain, I just think your posted sites are crap, especially the first one. Pretty easy to write anything you want when you cite a single source.
Quoted from 0geist0:USS Forestall. He is responsible for 134 men killed and 161 injured when he crashed into the carrier. He told the NVA everything he knew when he was a POW. How many died in Viet Nam because of his loose lips? (I spelled Viet Nam like the locals do)
What are your sources for this? Seriously.
Snopes says it's false.

Same with Politifact.
