re: #803 Olsonist
We carpet bombed with B52s and we sprayed the jungles with Agent Orange. My dad was there. He told me about the torture. I grew up reading Bernard Fall.
We did not carpet bomb villages, nor did we kill randomly.

Is My Lai a lie or not?
Building improvements is one thing, I’m sure we did that. But you can replace buildings, you can’t replace people.
My Lai really did happen, but in 7 years of major US ground involvement in Vietnam, that was the only time US forces did such a thing. And Lt. Cally was brought to trial and convicted for it, don’t forget that.
