 CAMP PENDLETON, Calif. (AP) - A Marine major who inspected the Iraqi homes where Marines killed 24 people testified Saturday that the gore left even 10 days after the gruesome sweep stamped searing images in his mind.
Hours after a comrade's killing in a roadside bombing, the Marines had cleared the houses in the town of Haditha with grenades and machine gun fire.
"That's the most blood I have ever seen," said Maj. Dana Hyatt, a civil affairs officer for the 3rd Battalion, 1st Marines at the time.
