There’s someone you need to meet

His name was CW2 Hugh Thompson, and he was a hero. A kind of hero so rare, thank God, that there isn’t a special name for his brand of courage, although maybe there ought to be.

Don’t know of him?

Do you remember Vietnam? The My Lai massacre?

He’s the man who made it stop. Stood up against his own friends and put his life between their smoking rifles and those villagers not yet murdered. People he did not know, people from another land.

Hugh Thompson. Died yesterday of cancer. Bill has the whole story, over at the Castle.

Read it.
