Funeral, Vinh Quoi
Funeral services in Vinh Quoi, Vietnam for casualties of a Viet Cong attack. Two bodies are lying covered with woven mats on top of white pallets. There are bundles of incense burning at the end of the pallets and there are also bunches of bananas sitting on top of the mats. A woman and two children squat in front of one of the deceased and two men are standing behind them. A rain-soaked grassy expanse can be seen in the background beyond the boundaries of the building's overhang. |
