SUMMARY:WAKING UP IN WAR, PHOTOGRAPHS FROM THE VIETNAM WAR, BY PETER B
 OICE
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition of photographs by Peter Boice from his deplo
 yment in the Vietnam War from 1969-70 as a photographer for the U.S. A
 rmy. His photographs tell a vivid story of searching, suffering, human
  connection and the glimpses of humanity that shine and endure through
  the fog of war. Curated by Boulder artist Ian McLaughlin. \n\nPeter 
 Boice grew up in Milwaukee WI. In 1967 he graduated from the Universit
 y of Arizona. Soon after, draft papers arrived, and in June 1967 he en
 listed in the United States Army in order to be assured a non-combat r
 ole.\n\nAfter training as a clerk, he was sent to Germany, and through
  a series of events became a photojournalist.\n\nIn February 1969 Pete
 r was reassigned to the information office of the 101st Airbase at Cam
 p Eagle near Hue Phu Bai, Vietnam. The night of his arrival, rockets r
 ained down on the base, blowing up the mess hall and causing many casu
 alties.\n\nIn May of 1969, one of the photographers assigned to the 1s
 t Brigade stood up in a firefight and while running to get a medic’s
  bag was killed by enemy fire. The next day Peter replaced him. Though
  inexperienced with a 35mm camera, he was given Nikons, told to read t
 he operator manual, and immediately sent out into the countryside. No 
 one in the office offered to train him; he would literally learn under
  fire.\n\nMany combat missions were blacked out. No news was good news
 .\nWhen Peter was not ordered out into the field with infantry, he ada
 pted by wandering about northern South Vietnam photographing and befri
 ending the Vietnamese. It was at this time that he began to awaken to 
 a world that transcended the violent overlay of America’s military o
 ccupation, and was given access to the beauty and private lives of the
  Vietnamese people.\n\nThis show is dedicated to all those Vietnamese 
 and Americans whose lives were lost or permanently altered, and partic
 ularly the Vietnamese children.\n\nPeter lives in Boulder Colorado whe
 re he gardens, practices meditation, cooks, and does carpentry project
 s. \n\nFor more information visit https://www.mytowncolorado.com/even
