The Vietnam Slide Project was created by photo editor Kendra Rennick, who began collecting photo slides after a close friend lost her father, a Vietnam veteran. Her friend found a box of slides that her father had taken while in Vietnam and from there Rennick has continued to collect photographs that Vietnam veterans took during their tours of duty. Here: “My beautiful picture”, one of the photos in Vietnam veteran C.R. Foster's collection. (Photo by C.R. Foster/The Vietnam Slide Project)
