I am looking for a research project a famous picture from the Vietnam war. This picture is for my Social Science seminar on the Veitnam war. The picture was taken by a photographer who was going on a patrol with a group of soldiers. He was pushed down onto the ground by one of the soldiers as a VC platoon ambushes. And as this photographer hits the ground he takes a picture inadvertantly of the soldier who pushed him down. The picture captures the man being shot in the head. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me find this photograph. My paper and presentation is over how not everything is how it seemed in Vietnam and there were still heroes even in this war which was hated by so many people.

You could try looking at the link below - however, you should know that there are almost 100,000 photos.

I think its a photo by Eddie Adams called Street Execution of a Vietcong Prisoner taken in 1968. Its in the Photo Book published by Phaidon.
