This photo is a classic for good reason. The setting is South Korea, 1950, the land of morning calm. Without knowing the backstory of the war initiated that year, the viewer may ask: Why would there be conflict here in this barren place? It's impossible not to admire the order displayed by both columns of people. The soldiers march into harm's way. The refugees form an orderly column toward an unknown destination. The dignity and resolve of everyone involved are immeasurable.
