# Reward Presented to Tran My, A Returnee, During a Chieu Hoi Meeting Held in II Corps at Phu Yen

A portrait sheet of five photographs shows a rallier named Tran-My receiving cash, gifts, a framed certificate and a furnished house at a Chieu Hoi congress in Phu Yen. Captions give the sums, 45,000 and over 200,000 piastres, and credit him with guiding Korean troops to kill 17 enemy soldiers and seize a machine gun, two AK-47s and eight rifles. The tell is the itemised reward for a named individual: the material payoff, set beside his battlefield record, is the argument.
