NEW YORK -- The iconic"Napalm Girl" photograph of terror-stricken Vietnamese children fleeing an errant aerial attack on their village, taken 50 years ago this month, has rightly been called"a picture that doesn't rest."
It became, almost immediately, an iconic image that for many symbolized the failures of the war in Vietnam. "It was only me with my driver there, then I said I don't want to leave because I know she will die," Ut recalled."Then I picked her up, put her in the van and I brought her to the hospital." "That picture became a very powerful gift for me to have a chance to have opportunity to do something back to help people," Phuc said."Now we are facing the violence shooting in the school it's another war," she said.
