Joe Galloway Passed Away

#1

Post by jls in az »

Longtime American foreign correspondent Joseph L. Galloway, best known for his book recounting a pivotal battle in the Vietnam War that was made into a Hollywood movie, has died. He was 79.

This man dodged bullets beside the grunts in Nam armed with only a camera. He was a true journalist, not what passes as one today. He has earned his rest in Valhalla for eternity.
