John McCain — a naval bomber pilot, a prisoner of war, a giant of the Senate and a two-time presidential candidate — died Saturday. He was 81.
Five days of memorials and ceremonies are planned in Arizona, Washington DC and Maryland this week.
Today, McCain will lie in state at the Arizona State Capitol in Phoenix. Members of the public will be able to pay their respects to the late senator.
His body will be moved to North Phoenix Baptist Church for a memorial service tomorrow. On Thursday afternoon, McCain's body will be flown from Arizona to Washington, DC.
On Friday morning, he'll lie in state at the US Capitol, and on Saturday, a mass of mourners will gather at the National Cathedral in Washington to attend another memorial service for McCain.
And on Sunday, a private memorial service will take place at the US Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. McCain will be laid to rest at the academy's cemetery next to his longtime friend and Naval Academy classmate, Adm. Chuck Larson.
