#todayinsj In 1971 the Winter Soldier Investigation began on this day. Mostly ignored by mainstream media and regularly denounced afterwards, the men at this investigation reported on the atrocities witnessed in Vietnam. It was sponsored by Vietnam Veterans Against The War.
Book linked is one of the most detailed war books I've ever read, and really illustrates what a nightmare that war must have been.
