I have clicked over and looked at this picture several times now...Guess it just brings up all the prayers for their safety, all the gratitude for their service and the picture is just so darned great.

Don't forget Private First Class Joseph P. Dwyer, a medic with the 3rd Infantry Division, who was photographed carrying an injured Iraqi boy back to cover, while under fire.

This one is news to me. Just shameful. So they apologized - big deal. A picture, even a disgusting aberration such as they published, is worth a thousand words and what people will remember. The apology? - just a blurb of words forgotten. I'm having trouble with the latimes site, did they run the 2 correct photos with the apology? At least that would have illustrated the error with the same impact as the original photo.

Not sure, but I doubt it.
