WOW! Obviously before I was born, but still, cannot imagine performing these activities as a U.S. Soldier today!

Cannot profess to know what went through their minds other than revenge for the loss of their fellow comrades, which is probably what drew the ease at the time for this to occur.

That said, can only imagine the PTSD for some of these guys - willfully shoot woman and children, worse yet, babies under order by their commanding officers!!!

As disturbing today as it was then. Recall seeing that Capt Medina passed this spring.

A lot of officers went unpunished in my opinion including Medina. Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen
