Quotes by Marcelino Truong (?)

“Hauptmann Khôi: – Haben Sie gesehen? Echt übel, so ein Krieg gegen Aufständische, was?! Okay, in zwei Stunden stehen Sie unter der Dusche… Dann ziehen Sie einen durch oder legen eine kleine vietnamesische Hure flach, und am Ende finden Sie diesen Krieg geil… … Bei ihrem nächsten Besuch werden Sie Fotos machen, die Sie sich heute nicht getraut haben. Und wir werden das zulassen. Und mit Ihren Fotos werden Sie uns großes Unrecht antun. Aber das unterscheidet uns von denen auf der anderen Seite.”
― Marcelino Truong, Such a Lovely Little War: Saigon 1961-63
