This is one of nearly 2,000 photographs shot by photographer Charlie Haughey, a member of the Army 25th Infantry division, between 1968 and 1969.
When he returned home, the photographs were boxed up for the next 40 years, only now being rediscovered,
digitized, and made available to the public.

He filmed both sides of the Vietnam conflict with 16mm cameras, and made a living selling the footage to press outlets." Charlie encountered Issot on several occasions in the field.

Charlie gifted Terrence with a print - made in Charlie's rudimentary darkroom in a base in Vietnam - of Terrence
in the field. The print was boxed up for 45 years before Terrence took ownership of it.
