A U.S. soldier from the 5th Squadron, 73rd Cavalry regiment, 3d Brigade combat team of 82nd Airborne Division feels the pulse of a wounded Iraqi soldier near the city of Baqouba, 60 kilometers (35 miles) northeast of Baghdad on Tuesday, Aug. 28, 2007.

AP photographer Karel Prinsloo witnessed the aftermath of an IED blast that killed three Iraqi soldiers. I do not know the fate of the soldier in this photo but it shocked me when I saw it. Reminded me of photos I saw from the war in Vietnam.
