...listing of DiCara's appearance was not a slur, but merely an observation that he did not lit the image of the Harvard grandee. I submit that this image does exist, and that it would be a minus factor if DiCara conformed to it. Of my own height, waist-line, nose or hairline, of course, Grillo knows nothing. Lastly, I stand by my observation that racial and ethnic origin, community rootism, and strength of organization are often of coequal importance with political stands in Boston elections--and, indeed, in elections all over the country.

During his 1960 visit to the United Nations, he called ceremoniously on Fidel Castro at his hotel in Harlem, and conducted a flamboyant press...
...offensive, Calley's company suffered heavy losses chasing an unseen enemy through mined rice paddies. Calley developed "a mild panic" that grew into hatred of the Vietnamese as Calley's patrols took repeated sniper and mortar fire from villages. The My Lai massacre followed at the height of this confusion and frustration, a sad confluence of bad training, bad leadership, bad intelligence and worse judgment...
