Medina Testifies He Issued Clear My Lai Order To Shoot Only When Threatens
Capt. Ernest L. Medina took the stand in his court martial and said he ordered his troops not to kill women and children at My Lai. He described Lt. Calley as lacking leadership and claimed Calley followed his orders during the March 1968 operation. Medina recalled warning shots and stated casualties could have risen without proper discipline. He cited an earlier pep talk and difficult equipment conditions as shaping factors for the assault. The trial also noted Calley’s refusal to testify, and Medina’s statements about Barker’s aggressive plans.
