The fortified entrance to a U.S. military base camp in Vietnam, photographed in 1971. Sandbagged bunkers and guard posts, common features of installation perimeters during the war, flank the compound gate. A photo-lab date stamp on the print reads June 1971. Fading and color shift in the image reflect the characteristics of consumer color film used widely by American servicemen to document their tour of duty. Project: 218684
