A Vietnam War photographer shares his images

During his time as a photographer in Vietnam, Charlie Haughey chronicled the daily life of soldiers in his battalion. Once his tour ended, his nearly 2,000 photo negatives ended up in a shoebox, hidden away.

While the exact number of Canadians who volunteered for military duty with U.S. services during the 10-year Vietnam war is difficult to pinpoint, most estimates put the number at about 30,000 troops, about the same number of U.S. citizens who fled to Canada to avoid the draft.
