re: Explains why...
... we have a jail full prisoners in Gitmo.
Nguyen Ngoc Loan's execution of a Viet Cong prisoner, known to have been a murderer did what he had to do at the time. As we all know, the Viet Nam war was nasty on all fronts. This was one of those times when a photo didn't tell (a thousand words) the whole story. Something I think we've all learned from the media as of late as well.
