Xuan Minh

I was revisiting one of Caps entries from this week, and when I clicked a link I saw this little thumbnail in the corner. More clicking, and I came to this, which is totally fucked.

Xuan Minh, 3, looks out from his bed at the Tu Du Hospital in Ho Chi Min city on Friday March 25,2005, suffering from what is believed to be the effects of the jungle defoliant Agent Orange, used heavily in the region by the U.S. armed forces during the Vietnam War. Vietnam celebrates the end of hostilities on April 30, 2005, marking 30 years since war in Vietnam ended.

UPDATE: Photoshopped or not? Dusk points us to this. Alternate angle:
