Soldier Who Died With Cameras A Vietnam Photographer
Spec. 4 Doug Holland of Anita Town died in a Vietnam war zone northwest of Saigon after volunteering for a final combat assault. A photo writer for the Ward Airborne Brigade, he moved to the brigade information office for his talent. Holland, 23, returned from Tokyo recreation leave with cameras that would capture his last weeks. He darted under fire to aid medics, but a bullet struck him in the neck, ending his life on the spot. His parents Mr and Mrs Russell F Holland recently moved to Sepulveda California and he hoped to lecture Iowa high schools about a soldier's view of Vietnam.
