My initial reaction was “why ?” ……it was a truly horrific act of barbarism, even by the standards of the Vietnam War – with its widespread rape, murder, chemical weapons, and carpet bombing. The fact that those responsible were all identified and yet never punished, simply adds to the outrage.
Not the most entertaining bit of TV viewing I would have thought.
But then it occurred to me that many might not know about My Lai, so yes, I would recommended watching. And not least because it was such important massacre which helped end US involvement in Vietnam, and exposed the lie that the US stood for an unshakable commitment to peace, democracy, and justice.
I can’t access the Military History Channel so won’t be seeing it.
