Veteran alleges helicopter pilots bragged about killing civilians
A Vietnam veteran says he heard U S helicopter pilots boast of killing South Vietnamese civilians in 1966 allied areas. Thomas F Loflin, then an Army officer, claims officers widely knew of such acts but he did not report them. He described pilots publicly bragging and firing at unarmed civilians for sport, with several incidents involving four to five deaths. The veteran later sought publication, facing little early dissent and resistance from authorities.
