My War
May 25 at 9:09pm by David Tate
Since the attacks on America in 2001, I have spent more than 260 days, in either Iraq or Afghanistan, covering US troops and their allies in their counter-insurgency struggles.
As most of those familiar with my work know, I am primarily a videojournalist, but also enjoy taking a couple of still shots every once in a while as well. Recently, I have assembled my favorite pictures from these experiences in the expectation of putting together an exhibit. With that said, I would love to get some public involvement in this project and it doesn’t cost a dime.
Take a few minutes, look at these images and then let me know what your top-five pictures are. All you have to do is leave the list in the feedback for this post. While it seems trivial to you, I need to cut the number of images down and would love your help in doing just that. So on this Memorial Day, take a few minutes and help me out.
If any of these images strike a chord with you, please let me know. I will be offering these images to interested people in VERY limited quantities, in many cases, just one print will be released. You can contact me at my new email address: newsmanpm@yahoo.com
All funds raised through this effort are going to help me replace gear that has been destroyed over the past few years.

6My selection: 09, 17, 32, 35, 47, 53, 56, 68.
I would so love to fly a paraglider over there but I suspect one may become a flying target. That and wondering if you will land on some ordinance or a land mine.
