I recently skewered an anonymous photojournalist for his condescending attitude toward soldiers he was assigned to cover. Allow me now to sing the praises of combat photographers David Guttenfelder, Joe Raedle, and Manpreet Romania by calling attention to this remarkable series of photographs titled “Marines Pour into Afghanistan” at the Denver Post . And, if I may, send out a “Semper Fi” and thanks to the 2nd Marine Expeditionary Brigade in Helmund Province.
We launched the First Things 2023 Year-End Campaign to keep articles like the one you just read free of charge to everyone.
Measured in dollars and cents, this doesn't make sense. But consider who is able to read First Things: pastors and priests, college students and professors, young professionals and families. Last year, we had more than three million unique readers on firstthings.com.
Informing and inspiring these people is why First Things doesn't only think in terms of dollars and cents. And it's why we urgently need your year-end support.
Will you give today?
