I read today that Horst Faas has passed. He was a Pulitzer Prize winning combat photographer that covered the Viet Nam war for many years starting in 1962.

RIP Horst!!

Thank You, Raider Fan and Stv3M. As a 'Nam vet myself and a subscriber to Vietnam Magazine I have seen and know of his work.
The latest issue of Vietnam Mag featured Napalm Girl-40 Years later.

I read about him in the news on my iPad. Eight years in Vietnam - amazing! Not only did he somehow manage to survive, but he did some fantastic photography.
