War’s Lingering Requiem in Vietnam

Unlike the Western photographers, the North Vietnamese photographers were combatants, ordered to stay on the battlefront until victory or death. They developed their film at night in streams using soup bowls, their darkroom a cardboard box. Luong Nghia Dung, the North Vietnamese Robert Capa; Pham Van Khuong, Vo Vanh Quy – their black-and-white war is so much like our war.
