Felicidades por el magnífico trabajo. Me han gustado la gran mayoría de las fotos, pero sobre todo la de la calle Sacramento del terremoto de San Francisco, con un encuadre y perspectiva maravilloso, pero sobre todo me ha impactado esos señores que están en la parte inferior derecha sentados tranquilamente, grabando en sus retinas el caos y el miedo de sus vecinos en la calle, o quizás, la nube de polvo y humo que se apodera de la ciudad, les metió el miedo en el cuerpo hasta el punto que tuvieron que sentarse, antes que caer al suelo. ( de todas formas se sentaron de una forma muy organizada)
Un abrazo dese Sevilla.

Wrong…the second flag raising was NOT a “re-enactment” of the earlier flag raising. The second flag went up after it was determined that the first flag was too small.

The only staged picture was that of a group shot of the Marines who raised the first, smaller flag.

The second raising was recorded on motion picture film and was not staged. You should get your facts straight. Semper Fi.

Soldier, according to dictionary.com, can be “one engaged in military service”. That may not be the most common usage, but close enough for me!

Picture #17 show French soldiers(I think) engaged in trench warfare. Since ww1 had not started yet, the date must be wrong, or that is not a Frenchman, or there was another war. I’d like to know. Anyone?

Thank you for such a nice collection of photos. Many of these I’ve only seen for the first time.

A minor correction: the identities of soldiers in #22 were known, or at least of one of them. He died this February. Here’s an article on RT: http://rt.com/Top_News/2010-02-17/veteran-soviet-flag-reichstag.html
