John McCain
Featured for this Week

Senator John McCain will always be remembered as a Vietnam War POW, Navy veteran, and statesman who rose to become his party’s nominee for president ten years ago.

John McCain died on Saturday, August 25, 2018, from brain cancer, nine years to the day that fellow senator and Army veteran Ted Kennedy was claimed by the same malignancy. Immediately after news broke of his passing, an outpouring of condolences and fond recollections came from both sides of the aisle and from around the world.

This week we honor Navy Veteran and Senator John McCain as our TopVet. We usually do not produce our awards posthumously. The last time we did it was when Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf died. But we do it when the Veteran has made an extraordinary impact on our lives as Americans and as servicemen and women.

While he was a politician who had people agree and disagree with him on both sides of the aisle, John McCain was a tireless advocate for his fellow Veterans and served his country with strength, courage and wisdom.

The Dick Van Dyke Show WeSalute Awards CelebVet: Dick Van Dyke “I'm looking for work if anybody has,” joked the now 100-year-old comedian and entertainer Dick Van Dyke. Best known for his iconic roles in films like Mary Poppins and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and the classic television series The Dick Van Dyke Show, the beloved actor has officially joined the centenarian club. Van Dyke celebrated his 100th birthday on December 13, a milestone marked not by a lavish Hollywood gala, but in true Van Dyke fashion: with a low-key day at home watching Jeopardy! reruns with his wife, Arlene Silver.
