This could possibly of went in PhotoJournalism. How did you get the photo? Actors? A Model? or does it just look like Vietnam?
:iconbamako:
Yes, it could have gone in Photojournalism but it is also weather in Viet Nam. I thought about it and dicided it was more weather than journalism.
I took the photo myself in Viet nam in the summer of 1969 and no, they were not actors or models, just draftees in the US Army like myself.

Wow.... very cool mate, great photo

Absolutely awesome shot. Those poor guys are going to get drenched really soon.

Out of curiosity, what's in the barrels holding up the roof of the bunker?

This is awesome!!
Glad you made it out of Vietnam in one piece at that time.
Hmm, actually, 1969 was quite calm, or was it? I need to re read the history ^^;
