John Sidney McCain III was born on August 29, 1936, at Coco Solo Naval Air Station in the Panama Canal Zone, to John S. McCain Jr., a highly decorated naval officer, and Roberta McCain. Growing up as the son and grandson of four-star admirals, the military's influence loomed large over McCain's early life. He spent much of his childhood moving between various naval bases in the United States and abroad, which instilled in him both a sense of discipline and a profound understanding of his family's military legacy.
