SGT Charlie Lee - I do believe Captain Medena was directly involved. At that time of the war, body counts were very important.

SGT Charlie Lee - " ultimately the responsibility of his superiors." If there was one principle that was hammered into my and my contemporaries heads was that, as a CO you were responsible for the conduct of your men. I pass no judgement on Calley's seniors, but he, as the platoon commander was responsible for his men's actions.
