Description

A magazine photographer in civilian life, Mark Jury was assigned to the U.S. Army Headquarters Information Office at Long Binh during the Vietnam War. With blanket travel orders and the Army's top press card, he spent his year-long tour of duty traveling around Vietnam and Cambodia photographing the war. This book, first published soon after his return from Vietnam, is a collection of affecting images that illuminate the human cost of the Vietnam War.
