A strong emotional photo, one can feel the pain of loss!

This is a photo by photographer Larry Burrows which ran as part of a Life Magazine article in 1965. It shows a Marine helicopter gunner in anguish after a mission in which his own chopper was shot up trying to rescue the crew of another helicopter which went down. This gunner performed bravely but was unable to save the lives of some of the other crew. This photo is an excellent choice as an example of life which is neither pretty nor fair. Unfortunately, combat is like that on a frequent basis.
