Last week it was announced that for failing, among other things, "to conduct a proper and thorough investigation" of the incident, Colonel Oran K. Henderson, former commander of the 11th Infantry Brigade, will be tried by a general court-martial. Of those charged, all have been freed except Henderson, Calley, Medina and Captain Eugene M.

According to Vasquez, Barker told Medina that "everything was going fine, going smooth, going to plan." The day before, Vasquez recalled, there had been a meeting of officers in which Colonel Henderson urged his brigade officers to "go in there aggressively, close with the enemy and wipe them out for good."
