He say and participated in strafing villages, did he not? Was he the only Swiftie that did that????? Or do the others not consider that an atrocity?????

"it was war, they always happen".....We know that now, but when he testified it was a deep dark secret.....was never never disclosed in the past from other wars, although historians and old vets talk about them......e.g. killing of prisoners was and, I imagine, still is routine.....
