My Lai Massacre

[Jim Eshelman]

My Lai, South Vietnam, 15N11, 108E52, March 16, 1968, beginning at 7:30 AM. Between 347 and 504 unarmed civilians were brutally killed en masse by American soldiers (for which Lt. William Calley Jr. was later tried and convicted). Popularly called "the most shocking episode of the Vietnam War," and certainly the most notorious.
