EP141 - The Ghosts of Pinkville: The Anatomy of a Massacre and Its Betrayal
On a March morning in 1968, an American infantry company entered a Vietnamese village expecting a firefight and instead initiated a massacre of unarmed civilians. This episode dissects the anatomy of a war crime—examining the psychological pressures and command failures that led to the atrocity—and the anatomy of the year-long, systematic cover-up designed to bury the truth of My Lai forever.
