The My Lai Massacre in American history and memory
No full textThis book examines the response of American society to the massacre and its ambiguous place in American national memory. The author argues that the massacre revelations left many Americans untroubled, and it was only when the soldiers most immediately responsible came to be tried that the controversy really came to public attention. He finds that, contrary to interpretations of the Vietnam conflict as an unhealed national trauma or wound, many Americans have assimilated the war and its violence rather too well, and they were able to do so even when that violence was most conspicuous and current. Consistent with the view that US soldiers have subsequently been cast in national culture as the conflict’s principal victims, it was the American perpetrators of the massacre and not the Vietnamese they brutalized who, even in the case of My Lai, became the central object of popular concern

Diagnosis: The female is similar to D. patellabifidus Wang2003 in lacking epigynal teeth and having broad spermathecae, but can be recognized by the absence of atrial ridges and the posteriorly broad, anteriorly less broad, diverging spermathecae (Figs 104, 109-120). The male can be easily recognized by the long patellar apophysis (longer than patellar length), the simple median apophysis, the bifurcate conductor, and the prolaterally originating embolus (Figs 99-101).

It can be distinguished by the valva without an apical spine, and the costa with a semicircular process at distal 2/5; in the female genitalia by the corpus bursae 1.5 times length of the ductus bursae. In <i>M. stictifascia</i>, the valva has an apical spine, and the costa lacks a process (Wang 2003: 206, fig. 15); and the ductus bursae is longer than three times length of the corpus bursae in the female genitalia (Wang 2003: 206, fig. 16).</p> <p> <b>Description.</b> Adult (Fig. 20).

Forewing with costal margin arched, apex rounded; ground color greyish black; median fascia yellow, from before middle of costal margin gradually widened and obliquely outward to above distal 1/3 of fold; distal spot at about distal 1/4, yellow mixed with blackish-grey scales, posteriorly diffused to median fascia, forming a large crescent patch on the wing; plical spot small, at distal 1/3 of fold; discal and discocellular spots black, placed at inner margin of median fascia and at outer margin of cell respectively; fringe greyish black. Hindwing and fringe blackish grey. Legs pale yellow, with exceptions on ventral surface: coxa of foreleg with scattered blackish-brown scales, tibia blackish brown mixed with yellow scales, tibiae of mid- and hindleg blackish brown except yellow at middle and at apex, tarsi of fore- and midlegs blackish brown except yellow at base of basal tarsomere and at apices of basal two and apical one tarsomeres, tarsus of hindleg on outer surface with basal three tarsomeres blackish brown except yellow at apices, all femora with scattered blackish-brown scales.</p> <p> <i>Male genitalia</i> (Fig. 38). Uncus sub-lanceolate, with dense short setae in distal 2/3, rounded at apex. Tegumen narrow, inverted V-shaped; lateral arm elongate, curved, heavily sclerotized along outer and anterior margins. Valva narrowed basally and distally, widened ventromedially, rounded apically, with dense long setae distally, sinuate on ventral margin; slender process arising from near base extending outward, curved basally and extending slightly ventrad distally, forming a broad U shape; costa wide, with two processes arising from below: one from below base extending ventrad, spoon-shaped, narrowed and curved basally, dilated distally, the other process from about distal 2/5 extending dorsad, large, sub-triangular, exceeding costal margin apically; transtilla being a short slender bar. Valva slightly asymmetrical: left valva broader, basal process shorter, not reaching costal process, ventral margin slightly concave at middle; right valva narrower, obtusely produced ventrally before middle, widely concave at middle. Sacculus quadrate, dorsoapically produced to a large slender process curving downward distally, pointed apically. Saccus shorter than uncus, small, sub-triangular.
