Air Force officer testifies on falsified air strike reports
Former Captain George R. Moses testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee that he was ordered to create a fake reporting system for tactical air strikes in Cambodia as late as April 1971. He said missions west of the Mekong were recorded as nearer the South Vietnamese border to hide North Vietnamese movements. He cited a directive after the May 1970 Cambodia invasion and described a dual reporting system similar to B52 tallies.
