Denis Gibbons, who spent 5 years with Aussie troops in Vietnam, died on Monday.

Many of the pics from the Vietnam era war were from the camera lens of Denis.

RIP

Thanks for the heads up, I never knew who this was, however after a quick look, he was obviously a remarkable man and photographer and he has some very compelling and moving images.
