This is one of most famous war photo from vietnam. to me the better way to make a point about vietnam war is the video because it show your more emotions before and after the photo has been taken where as the picture show you desieve moment for the south vietnam police captain and the suspected viet cong. it is the desisve moment or the man who got shot because it is his last moment on planet earth and it is being pictured to show to millions around the world for entertainment,art,informed and to be teached around the globe in history lessons. it also the desive moment for the police captain because it is due to this picture which destroy his life because he didnt gave the veit cong suspect a fair trial or even arrested him. he shot him to impress the american soilder who is seen behind, this is to prove a point that he along with some other people wants the americans to stay to keep them safe from the veit cong.
