Archived Locked [ARCHIVED THREAD] - My Lai massacre hero dies at 62
Posted: 1/7/2006 1:32:15 AM EDT
Hugh Thompson Jnr, a former US military helicopter pilot who helped stop one of the most infamous massacres of the Vietnam War has died, aged 62.

Mr Thompson and his crew came upon US troops killing civilians at the village of My Lai on 16 March 1968.

He put his helicopter down between the soldiers and villagers, ordering his men to shoot their fellow Americans if they attacked the civilians.


America needs more like him.

R.I.P.
