“He also filed a biased report concerning US efforts during the Tet ‘68 Offensive.”

Biased!!?? I was just a kid then, but reading about it later he out-and-out lied. IIRC he said that we had lost the battle. True, it was a terrible battle and we had a lot of casualties.

But the enemy (Viet Cong primarily) fared a LOT worse. IIRC the VC were not very effective (if at all) after their losses in the Tet Offensive.

Oh, I agree with you. In one article I read he stated that he filed “an admittedly biased report.” Those were his words. I served with many USMC SNCOs who hated that man, as do I.
