Janet,

Surprised to hear that from an intelligent, understanding lady like you!

There was no fabrications in the No Gun Ri story, except the
false confession by Ed Daily. If you read the book, the Bridge at
No Gun Ri, the story is basically based on the confessions of
many GIs involved in the killing and US military documents.
I would love to hear from you where you found the fabrications
(tell me the pages).

I have the highest respect for many fine journalists who have
digged out hidden stories, contributing to our
understanding of history. Some examples are I.F.Stone,
Bob Woodward, and the three reporters on No Gun Ri.
