    May 25, 1967

    The Post runs Frank Johnston’s photo (cropped) of an unidentified, exhausted Marine at Peace Church at the center of Page A01. The caption reads, in part, "Behind him hangs a crucified Christ. Yesterday, U.S. airplanes struck a railyard north of Hanoi and staged air strikes elsewhere in North Vietnam." The story with the headline "Viet War Torture Usual, Levy Trial Witnesses Say" leads with the news that, "For the first time, an American court today heard witnesses testify to charges that the United States is committing war crimes in Vietnam."
