PHOTOGRAPHS OF VIETNAM: Most of our readers remember Vietnam as a place of horror, despair, and squalor. But behind this heavy haze of war lay fragile beauty and hidden tranquility. In this one-of-a-kind issue of The VVA Veteran we spotlight the work of three photographers: Geoffrey Clifford, Mark F. Erickson, and Chuck Forsman; each with a different background; each capturing a different era. And although these are not wartime images, all three photographers remain defined by the war and see the land partially through that lens.
