McDonough’s decision to put a stop to the aggressive and violent acts towards the Vietnamese women and children. This not only sets an example of the character that an American Army Officer should display, but it strengthens relations between the Americans and the Vietnamese civilians. Whenever this family thinks of the Americans, they will have this positive image in mind. It is important to have local support in a foreign nation when engaging in a war. We engaged in this war in order to cease the spread of communism, and if the locals believe they we are a good force whom operates in order to instill protection rather than to control their nation, that mindset may spread. If this mindset spreads, maybe it will also spread support for the cause. </span><b></b><i></i><u></u>
