I: "Is there a difference between what happened in your case in Vietnam and what happened in Abu Ghraib?"

K: what i was referring to in that testimony is the general categorization of free fire zones and some of the weapons that were being used (the .50 cal). Says he "never knew" the Geneva Conventions when he was there (aren't all officers supposed to know them?)
