From Sill: “This young orphan lived in the streets of Soyapongo, El Salvador. According to older children, his parents had recently been killed by soldiers. Shortly after making this picture, I watched a group of soldiers stop their truck, get out, shoot a man then continue on their way.” (Credit: Murry Sill)

What a sobering article! I've visited El Salvador after the war and it is such a lovely country with such gentle and peaceful people. It is so hard to imagine this horrible war. It shames me that the US funded it.
