Abstract

Several years ago, Senator Bob Kerrey was accused by fellow veteran Gerhard Klann of being involved in atrocities during the Vietnam War. Klann claimed that Kerrey personally assisted with the throat-cutting of an elderly peasant, and that some babies were executed along with the other members of the village.
