Pleiku, Republic of Vietnam, 1971. Jim Lovins photograph, considerably touched up. Looks a lot like the original was a terrific photograph.

Even now I've got mixed feelings about hiring local women for a few cents a day to do our chores. While I'm certain that they welcomed the income, there was something about the situation that didn't sit right with me.

All the same, I helped pay for them, and depended on them to keep things in order.
