ARVN Major General Lê Minh Đảo (5 March 1933 - 19 March 2020). General Đảo commanded the South Vietnamese Army's 18th Division nicknamed "The Super Men" to fight against the North Vietnamese Army to hold Long Khánh, and the province of Xuân Lộc as the main line of defense during the last major battle of the Vietnam War in April 1975. Realizing that Xuân Lộc was not an easy-to-swallow prey, the NVA decided to disengage and go around to Biên Hòa instead before entering Saigon.
