You have been on this site a little over 2 months, and decide to denigrate the Vietnam veterans on this forum. Not a wise move sparky.

You said “We protected the civilians, we didn’t victimize them”.
I am just pointing out that this is not true. A massacre as bad as My Lai is enough to stain the reputation of all US forces who were in Vietnam at the time. It is enough to stain the reputation of the entire nation.
People in Vietnam are still suffering from the herbicides and defoliants we used.
Why should I apologize? For pointing out a historical fact?
I think you should apologize for calling it “one lousy unit’s war crime”.
