Saw Civilian Dead: Eugene Russell of LaGrange, Georgia, holds up a page from his scrap book containing a picture of what he said were civilian victims in a village south of Pleiku. Russell, who was recently discharged from the Army, said he took the photograph in November 1967, after US infantrymen had moved through the village. He said he saw none of the actual shooting but that he saw about 25 dead civilians in the village, Atlanta, Georgia, December 5, 1969
