A child suffering from tuberculosis and malaria in addition to starvation. The nurses injected saline solution through a vein in the child's head, but were unable to save the life of the child. During the famine, many people died from concomitant illnesses rather than starvation 飢餓に加えて結核とマラリア熱に襲われた子ども。看護婦は頭の静脈に食塩注射をしたが、子どもの命はよみがえらなかった。飢餓状態においては飢えそのものよりも、関連する病気によって死ぬ人が多い

作品画像：南ヴェトナム政府軍によるラオス侵攻作戦。ラオス国境から25キロほど進んだ地点で、装甲車部隊は地雷原に触れて大音響とともに爆発した。その瞬間装甲車からたたき落とされた兵士が、手榴弾銃を右手に膝をつき、さらに左奥では負傷した兵士たちが抱き合っていた。－この連続写真の1枚が『LIFE』1971年3月12日号の表紙となった
