BBC World Service - Witness History, Vietnam Photographer

The great British war photographer Don McCullin remembers the Vietnam war.

At the age of 30, the British photographer, Don McCullin, travelled to Asia for his second ever war assignment - Vietnam.

His graphic photographs of the fighting made his reputation and influenced public opinion in the West.

But even now, McCullin is still pained by his experiences in Vietnam.
