-----Original Message-----Diên Biên Phû was a battle between the French and the Vietnamese and a name which is not in common usage. It is a disgrace for the Americans to think they can rewrite this otherwise. This name must be rendered in either French or Vietnamese, being a Vietnamese sympathizer I vote for Vietnamese, but I am willing to compromise, however this was certainly not an American battle.
