...rare nowadays, but Brown is so worshipful that he applies Freudian interpretations where Freud never reached. He justifies this by seeing Freud as a Columbus who had time to go so far on uncharted seas and no farther. Some times Brown makes slight alterations in Freud's pioneering map when he feels it is necessary, but more often he exalts him. Says he in Love's Body: "There is only one political problem in our world today: the unification of mankind. That they may be one-ut unum sint. This is Christ's last prayer before...
...attack bases in Thailand, Major General Gilbert L. Meyers, Saigon-headquartered vice-commander of the U.S. Seventh Air Force, showed up personally in the briefing rooms. "We've got one of those targets we've been waiting for," he lectured before a wall map of Hanoi. "Now let's do a good job on it, and we may get the other targets we want.

...Gang. When a team fresh from Vung Tau in their black pajamas and black berets arrived in Binh Phuoc, an inland hamlet of rice and manioc farmers, they started from the ground up-and slowly-to win the confidence of the villagers. First project: drawing a crude map of the village, its homes and road accesses. They ate in the local restaurants as a means of getting acquainted, took guard duty at night, began a census, used part of their first paychecks to buy cigarettes to give away. Working in three-man cells, they visited huts during the day, passing...
