That is the source and excuses I am familiar with too.
The real shame of it to me is not the courts martial, or even those three. The shame is that McVay had mental health problems for the rest of his life, but I don't believe any human being could stand the mental strain of having all those lives lost that were under his authority and who were his responsibility. Sometimes the country asks too much of its servants, and this was one of those times.
