"The People Behind the Pictures"




How do you think we have war pictures such as these?

Its because of brave journalists such as these:


War correspondent: Terry Fincher of the Express (left) and Larry Burrows (right) covering the war in Vietnam in April 196

War Correspondent Kevin Sites with Afghan fighters.




War correspondent Joe Galloway.

CBS war correspondent Lara Logan. 


These war correspondents risk their lives to inform the people about the war. They go to the most dangerous war zones with no military training . They are brave and ambitious and they should get more protection and recognition.

  1. I agree you always see these pictures of war and overseas soldiers yet the photographers are rarely mentioned. They go through just as much as the soldiers and they are on the front lines right beside them. They should get more recognition for their bravery!
