Vet claims witnessing atrocities in Vietnam
Dennis Lee Stout, a disabled Vietnam veteran and ASU student, says he personally observed American troops commit atrocities in Vietnam. He alleges the Army tolerated such acts, including a medic killing elderly villagers with swamp water and alcohol, mass rape and murder of a Vietnamese woman, and torture followed by killings of prisoners. He blames the Army system, not individuals, and seeks congressional inquiry through Rep. Morris Udall, noting he was wounded three times and aims to report through officials.
