he did 2 stints of house arrest for being in charge of the murder of 350-or so women and children. america changed the channel so fast that it's a bit surprising he didn't walk. but he didn't, total about 3 years confinement to barracks. from one point of view, like for instance if he was in the nazi army, he should've hung. but he was in the american army, and unless you're willing to hang every one in his chain of command, he should've walked, because vietnamese were officially 'unpeople'.
