At some time during my coming and going to Vietnam I remember seeing a picture which has stuck with me. It was a picture of a young man in a business suit carrying a briefcase. It appeared he had encountered a typical anti-war hippy on what looked like the steps to a building. The camera captured the business man in with his leg extended attempting to kick the hippy. I have remembered that photo to this day. I am sure it isn't the most famous photo to come out of the Vietnam era but it sure restored my faith in America. If there is any possible way to obtain a copy of this photo I would be more than happy to pay all expenses. Sincerely, Ron Strickland CW4, US Army, Ret.

A single individual standing up to the might of the state. The others are also good in that they show some of the horrors of war but the Chinese one inspires hope. I like the top one the most.

I was really considering more Photo Journalistic (IE War or news) type stories. But the story behind it has a powerful message as much as the photo. I hope others share ones they found impressive.
