#21 The Blunt Reality of War in Vietnam” appears on the November 26, 1965 cover of LIFE. Paul Schutzer’s photograph of a Vietcong prisoner with his eyes and mouth taped shut captured the tumultuous war. Schutzer was one of LIFE’s best photographers, but was killed on assignment while covering the Six-Day War in 1967.
I think this photo is very interesting because it shows vietnam prisoners of war and how they were treated. Almost like it is mocking the U.S. because they are considered "world police" and they have the right to treat prisoners like this.
