mar 16, 1968 - My Lai Massacre

Description:

The My Lai Massacre was just another reason for the US public to disapprove of the war in Vietnam. In 1968, US troops fired upon and killed 400 innocent civilians in the village of My Lai. It is unknown who to blame for the incident, but it made the war even more controversial, and brought more distrust for the US government.
