Famed Vietnam combat photographer Catherine Leroy was in Vietnam from Feb 1966 to March of 1969.
Famed Vietnam combat
photographer Catherine Leroy was in Vietnam from Feb 1966 to March of 1969.
Kevin E. Dayhoff, August 18, 2015 www.kevindayhoff.net
I was recently reminded of the legendary combat photographer
Catherine Leroy. I was not aware that she had died… She died unexpectedly July
8, 2006.
According to a tribute to her written by Jay Defoore and
published in Popular Photography on December 19, 2008, “Leroy first arrived in
Saigon in February of 1966 without ever having published a photo. She had in
her possession a Leica M2 and a mere $100. Just 21 years of age, she had no
formal photographic training and had never been more than a few hundred miles
from Paris. Through pluck and luck, she would go on to become the most famous
female war photographer of the Vietnam era.
The standard rate for a Vietnam photograph that moved on the
wire in those days was $15.00 per photograph. She had many of her photos
published in Look and Life.
She was the stuff of legend with Marines. She spent a great
deal of time in theater with Marines.
According to her obituary by Phil Davidson that ran in The Independent
on Monday, July 17, 2006, “She was the first newsperson, male or female, to
parachute into combat with US forces, and the first to photograph the Vietcong
behind their own lines after she was captured during the Tet offensive but
charmed her way to freedom. When she was wounded by a mortar round, she
believed it would have killed her had her sturdy Nikon F2 not stopped the
biggest piece of shrapnel.
In that story, retold by Defoore, “Leroy's legend was only
aided by her independent spirit and resilience. On May 19, 1967, Leroy was
injured by a mortar while on patrol with a group of Marines. "We were
being mortared again and again, and there was nowhere to hide," she
recounted to American Photographer. ‘I remember lifting my camera up to take a
picture when there was a huge bang and I went down in the grass. I was
conscious but couldn't move, and I was completely covered with blood -- and
terrified that nobody would see me because I was covered by grass.’
“A month after suffering the worst of the mortar round,
Leroy was back to tackling some of the most dangerous stories imaginable. In
January of the next year Leroy and fellow French journalist Francois Mazure
were captured by the North Vietnamese and she photographed her captors for a
cover story in Life magazine.”
Many of her photographs have iconographic of the war in
Southeast Asia. First among equals was ““Corpsman in anguish,” in which Corpsman
Vernon Wike, 2/3rd Marine, looks in anguish when he realizes that his buddy is
dead. Battle for Hill 881. 1967
According to her obituary by Phil Davidson that ran in The
Independent on Monday, July 17, 2006, “Her most famous pictures were three shot
in quick succession, but without a motor-drive, showing a young US marine
corpsman (medic), Vernon Wike, crouched in tall grass in 1967 during the battle
for Hill 881 near Khe Sanh. He is cradling a comrade who had just been shot by
a Vietcong guerrilla.
In the first frame, Wike, still smoking the cigarette he had
lit before the shooting, has both hands on his buddy's chest, trying to staunch
the wound. In the second, he is trying to detect a heartbeat. In the third,
perhaps her most famous, image, known as Corpsman in Anguish, he has just
realised his buddy is dead. Leroy later recalled that Wike then ran from cover,
shooting and yelling, ‘I'm gonna kill them all!’ He survived.”
Leroy remained in Vietnam until March of 1969.
According to Defoore, “Leroy's sudden death -- many of her
closest friends didn't even know she was sick -- has left many unanswered
questions, such as what will become of her vast collection of negatives…”

custody as of 5 p.m., but the fire marshal's office is continuing to
investigate. Anyone with information about either incident is asked to contact
