From Kerry's senate testimony:

"I would like to talk, representing all those veterans, and say that
several months ago in Detroit, we had an investigation at which over
150 honorably discharged and many very highly decorated veterans
testified to war crimes committed in Southeast Asia, not isolated
incidents but crimes committed on a day-to-day basis with the full
awareness of officers at all levels of command....

They told the stories at times they had personally raped, cut off
ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human
genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies,
randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of
Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and
generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam..."

/~ebolt/history398/

Yet he was the only one testifying to all those attrocities and he did
not name any specific incidents nor did he name any specific
commanders. As he stated "They told stories.." . So basically in any
court in the country his testimony would be considereed "hearsay"
evidence.
He spoke in generalities and mentioned no singular examples iof
anything that he spoke of.
