Though rated best of the three divisions in IV Corps, the 7th Division, from which General Thanh was promoted, was unable to shake the reputation it had picked up as the "Search and Avoid Division." The other IV Corps divisions, the 9th and the 21st performed no better.
Thanh commanded the loyalty of his troops, and during the Tet offensive Thanh's popularity nearly cost him his life.
For forty-five minutes Gen. Thanh bowed and shook hands with the stream of well-wishers; most South Vietnamese senior officers never fraternized with their peasant soldiers or with the rural population.

 Race and Resistance: Literature and Politics in Asian America by Viet Thanh Nguyen [ISBN: 0195146999] - Find Cheap ...
In Race and Resistance: Literature and Politics in Asian America, Viet Nguyen argues that Asian American intellectuals have idealized Asian America, ignoring its saturation with capitalist practices.
This idealization of Asian America means that Asian American intellectuals can neither grapple with their culture's ideological diversity nor recognize their own involvement with capitalist practices such as the selling of racial identity.
The first reviewer has not only missed the point; he or she is naive and has almost certainly not read the book.
