 Chaplain John McNamara of Boston makes the sign of the cross as he administers the last rites to photographer Dickey Chapelle in South Vietnam Nov. 4, 1965. Chapelle was covering a U.S. Marine unit on a combat operation near Chu Lai for the National Observer when she was seriously wounded, along with four Marines, by an exploding mine. She died in a helicopter en route to a hospital. She became the first female war correspondent to be killed in Vietnam, as well as the first American female reporter to be killed in action. Her body was repatriated with an honor guard consisting of six Marines and she was given full Marine burial.- Timothy Tumbrink Added: Aug. 1, 2012 | |||

 Dickey could have played it safe. That she never did, that she insisted on taking risks that many of her male colleagues would not, earned her respect from the American troops among whom she lived in Vietnam. Her spirit lives.- donrichfan Added: Nov. 4, 2009 | |||

 Dickey, I was privileged to hear you address the student body at Shorewood High School back in the early 1960s. Your talk inspired me and I think of that experience often. You were, and continue to be, a wonderful role model. As a member of the Shorewood High School Class of 1964, I salute you, a member of the Class of 1935. You are my hero. God bless. Rest in peace.- LilyPondLane Added: Nov. 4, 2009 | |||
