Commander offers best wishes after McCain diagnosed with brain cancer.
American Legion National Commander Charles E. Schmidt sent the following message to Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., who was recently diagnosed with brain cancer:
Dear Sen. McCain,
From your service as a Naval officer to your career in the Senate, you have always been a fighter. You fought a brutal enemy to keep faith with your fellow POWs, you fought for veterans and you fought for a strong national defense. On behalf of 2 million American Legionnaires, we pray for your recovery and well-being. Keep on fighting, Sen. McCain. America needs you
God Bless,
Charles E. Schmidt
