  • Object – This image is far too small to be a featured picture. Great photo, it's a shame the resolution is so low. ♠ SG →Talk 14:12, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Support. Very famous image and of great historical significance. Usually, quality is not scrutinized so in images of such age and historical background. -- AJ24 15:16, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support. Extremely famous image, reminiscent of the girl in Vietnam fleeing the napalm attack. This image is prominently featured in Martin Gilbert's book on the Holocaust. Powerful. Antandrus (talk) 16:36, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment I assume you mean Image:TrangBang.jpg. That image is amazing, why is it copyrighted? Surely it was taken by the US military and is therefor PD? Seems such a loss, it would be a great addition to historical FAs - Jack (talk) 17:18, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • It was not taken by a U.S. government employee. It was taken by a press photographer, IIRC, and is copyrighted. -- Moondigger 18:49, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
