I know this may sound nuts to some, but I've often thought that I'd loved to have been a photo journalist during WWII. I know, as I've stated, some of you will think I am absolutely crazy. Maybe I am. That's just me.
Saw a show on a female Nam correspondent the other day on TV. Fascinating. She got right in with the guys and became a respected person. Saw some things no one would want to see. She explained about the sound of bullets whizzing by her head. Heart-stopping. Thrilling. Scary. Depressing. Any number of adjectives and synonyms come to mind.
Marion!!!! We are soul sisters. I always thought that would be the best job on the planet. Were you watching the biography of Dickey Chappell? She had the heart of a lion and the kahoonas to go places a lot of troops didnt even want to go.I will have to look at my old term paper and see if I covered her. She was something else thats for damn sure..Hugs at ya Cindy
