Was he on night patrol,looks like a pretty big moon in the background. Might be special effects like colored camera lens?

Re: M70 Sniper for Joker
The picture was taken in daylight during a company sized patrol.
The special effects you see were added in for effect and to increase sales of catalogs and blacklight posters...

I think he died in 2000 or 2001. Cant remember for sure and I cant remember what he died from.

It was taken in black and white and has been featured on everything from the cover of Vietnam magazine to any number of popular books. I tried to contact him a couple of years ago via an organizational website that he belonged to, when I saw they had a reunion scheduled that summer. I A nice lady called me back and told me he had passed. A version of this image is the registered trademark of the USMC Scout Sniper Association.

Dalton Gunderson was in country 1965/66 ... he was a member of K 3/7 ... the guy to his left is then L/Cpl Jerry Dunomes, the RTO.

Strick. I don't know. I know quite a few of the 7th Marines that were snipers in RVN but they were a few years after him. I'll have a look over the shelves, because I think the Chandlers probably have a mention about it or stole some stuff out of his garbage in order to put a picture in one of their books.
