Funeral, Vinh Quoi
Women and children crouch around bodies laid out for funerals covered with woven mats. The deceased were killed during a Viet Cong raid of Vinh Quoi, Vietnam. The arrangements for the dead feature sticks of incense and bunches of bananas. One of the women is crying and one is covering her head with a cloth. A girl standing next to them has an injured face. |
