SOURCE G: From an article published in Time Magazine in January 1970. This described a massacre of Vietnamese civilians in My Lai in March 1968. It was written by a US army reporter who was present at the time


Quote:
Troops accosted a group of women, including a teenage girl. A GI grabbed the girl and started stripping her. A photographer jumped in to take a picture of the group. The picture shows the thirteen year old girl trying to hide behind her mother.

Then a soldier asked, “Well what’ll we do with them?” “Kill them,” said another soldier. I heard a light machine-gun go off and when we turned around, all of them and the kids were dead.
