The Things They Carried "Style" pg 129-130

In the chapter "Style" A girl is found with most of her village has burned to the ground and her family has been burned to death by the American soldiers, a Vietnamese girl of fourteen dances through the wreckage. The men of the platoon cannot understand why she is dancing.

"All right then, dance right."

This quote came from one of the soldiers who saw Azar mocking the little girl who was dancing in the rubble. He got pulled aside and the solider told him that line because he was flailing his arms and kicking the girls dancing.
