Army study finds 23 percent of Vietnam returnees used heroin
An Army psychologist said a March study of enlisted servicemen returning from Vietnam through Oakland found 23 percent had used heroin. Maj. Eric Nelson of Letterman General Hospital noted the figure included those who used the drug one to 200 times, but not all were addicts. He cited a stable problem until a June 1970 surge of high quality heroin in Vietnam.

Bailey argues in court that prosecuting Medina alongside Calley risks tainting any jury and endangers Medina’s ability to be tried in the foreseeable future. He says the government cannot have its cake and eat it, and notes Medina testified at the jury’s request in the Calley case.
