The Peers Report faulted Maj. Gen. Samuel W. Koster and Brig. Gen. George H. Young Jr. for numerous acts of misconduct and omission in the My Lai 4 massacre cover up. It details suppression of information, failed investigations, and deliberate withholding of reports across the Americal Division, with criminal charges later dropped for insufficient evidence or lack of intent.
