Did McCain just say that troops should be teachers upon returning home?

With absolutely no teacher credential testing or student teaching experience?

Does no one else see a problem with that?

    I believe he mentioned a qualification process. At any rate some schools need combat veterans to teach.

    Yes, but I assumed he meant in military academy, not in regular schools. Was that not the case?
