The 50th Anniversary of the Vietnam War is being commemorated by the Associated Press with a photography book called Vietnam: The Real War, A Photographic History by the Associated Press .

In a recent trip to Vietnam, I visited the War Remnants Museum in Saigon, Ho Chi Minh City. The museum also hosts a compilation of photographic images from the war, showcasing the work of men and women from across the globe who died or are recorded as missing in Vietnam during this era.
Photographers Tim Page and Horst Faas, who had both been injured in Vietnam, worked for 4 years gathering thousands of photographs by 134 photographers. “Requiem” includes work by Vietnamese photographers on both sides of the conflict as well as American, French, Australian photographers and those from 5 other countries.
