General accused in civilian deaths continues My Lai link
The case centers on Donaldson accused of aiding civilian deaths in My Lai era actions. An Army investigation followed statements by a helicopter pilot tied to the 1st Brigade. General Hutchin could dismiss charges or pursue a grand jury type path. Donaldson’s legal team says evidence will vindicate him. McCloskey, a decorated officer, faces separate charges tied to a 1969 March incident and holds multiple awards. Donaldson served in the JCS and as chief of staff for the 7th Infantry Division in Korea.
