This image, by Don McCullin, is of a US Marine prior to or during the battle for Hue, 1968; of course I don't have to tell you that, you all know. It has been used on the front cover of a book, The Scars of War, by Hugh McManners.
The image was also used by the Wikileaks creator Julian Assange during a recent press conference. A UK journalist has posed the question - who is he? Is he still alive? The inference is that the correlation between the courage of the US Marine, and Assange is unbalanced.
I would appreciate your help.
Aye, Rob.
Ready and Willing!

I have discovered that McCullin was embedded with Delta Company 1/5th US Marines at Hue. Anybody recognise the Marine in the image? The photograph is simply annotated, "Shell shocked soldier, Hue 1968."
Hope we're returning to RVN without government intervention this time!
