Additional quotes by Hugh Thompson Jr.

Something terrible happened here 30 years ago today. I cannot explain why it happened. I just wish our crew that day could have helped more people than we did.

They said I was screaming quite loud. I threatened never to fly again. I didn't want to be a part of that. It wasn't war.

I'd received death threats over the phone. Dead animals on your porch, mutilated animals on your porch some mornings when you get up. So I was not a 'good guy'.
