Returning Marine Garwood Held for Medical Checkup on Okinawa
A 33 year old U.S. Marine from Greensburg Indiana arrives in Bangkok after long service in Vietnam and is taken to Okinawa for a few days of medical evaluation as the Marine Corps weighs court martial charges alleging unlawful dealings with the enemy. Garwood disputes the need for delay and a lawyer hired by his family questions the extended medical check. He says he betrayed U.S. government involvement in Vietnam but not the United States.
