	McCarthy quickly made a name for himself as a tail-gunner. As new traveled home to Appleton, McCarthy had received an air medal, four stars, and the distinguished Flying Cross, awarded for 25 missions in combat. Stories of McCarthy’s battle wound were soon also circulating the newspapers. These stories and awards help decorate not only his uniform but his political career as well. He name appearing on newspaper and in people’s ears were actually the effect that McCarthy wanted to jump start his path to Washington. In reality he only when on only two missions in which he shot at trees. The Fleming expose, about McCarthy’s war wound which was really from falling of a stairwell causing a leg fracture, further demolished the tail gunner and war-wound fabrications. “Typical of McCarthy, he disputed the story without expressing any ill will towards the author” (Oshinsky 32). Despite the insult to injury McCarthy came home to a hero’s welcome when he obtained a 30 day leave to run for the 1946 senator election against another incumbent Alexander Wiley as a republican. Surprisingly, McCarthy won 80,000 votes, not enough to beat Wiley but enough to get his name out there. Once again, McCarthy did not expect to win but ran for the experience and the publicity. This is a strategically maneuver that seems to be common among his attempts to enter a new field of politics.		McCarthy quickly made a name for himself as a tail-gunner.

-	Upon returning to the pacific, McCarthy applied for another leave claiming that his judicial duties had been too long overlooked. He was denied the leave of absence and resigned his commission. His military experience helped him meet John Kennedy, which would help him later in his political life and it gave him the publicity he needed to test out his abilities with Alexander Wiley. In Feb. 1945, McCarthy obtained his official discharge from the Marines. Even though McCarthy was not the hero he claimed to be, he can be appreciated for the little that he did do in the military. The most important aspect was that he did not have to go. Yet, he did in order to benefit himself and the American people. What has the other politicians do during war times? By stepping on to the war ground, McCarthy is putting his life endanger. This makes him a hero regardless of his fall.	+	Upon returning to the pacific, McCarthy applied for another leave claiming that his judicial duties had been too long overlooked.

		+	(Herman 31) By stepping on to the war ground, McCarthy is putting his life endanger. This makes him a hero regardless of his fall.

	All of McCarthy’s preparations were for the 1946 Wisconsin primaries, where he would face incumbent, Bob Lafollette. The Lafollette has dominated the Wisconsin senate for years; however, with the destruction of the Progressive Party, Lafollette’s easy reelection became very difficult. McCarthy was once again the long-shot. Besides having no chance of winning, The Milwaukee journal and the Madison Capital-times tried to end McCarthy’s chance by “citing both the State Constitution and the American Bar Association’s code of ethics (which forbids judicial officers from engaging in political activities) and demanded that he resign his judgeship” (Oshinsky 42). He refused to lose his job and kept himself in the race. McCarthy’s campaign for senate reflected his strategies for other elections. He focused on a passionate issue that everyone cared about and he put himself out there so that anyone and everyone can see him. “His main theme, for example, was that America had the duty either to lead the world or to play no part in it at all” (Oshinsky 44). He also supported veterans’ pensions, which is probably another reason (aside from trying to publicize his military experience) they spent lots of money on brochures that playing on his military background. Another common aspect was that “the campaign had a curiously manic air about it, dominated by a figure who would say anything, threaten anyone, go anywhere to achieve his objective” (Oshinsky 44-45). His strategies incredibly seem to work very well.		All of McCarthy’s preparations were for the 1946 Wisconsin primaries, where he would face incumbent, Bob Lafollette.
