Evangelo’s has got to be the liveliest bar in Santa Fe around the Palace of Governors once the sun goes down, a rather disapointing discovery. No wolves howling at the moon, no wind talkers, wind walkers, or pub crawlers to be seen. Maybe Canyon Road is a better choice, although the one bar visited there was quiet, maybe too early in the day for the local artisans – will research that more on my next visit.<\/font><\/span><\/p>\n

It was taken by W. Eugene Smith (1918-1978), titled “Frontline Soldier with Canteen, Saipan” June 1944<\/font><\/span><\/p>\n

Highly respected for his brilliant and compassionate photo-essays, Smith was one of America’s most acclaimed photojournalists. During World War II, he gained a reputation for pictures that showed both the horror of war and the heroism of soldiers under fire, including “Frontline Soldier with Canteen, Saipan,” June, 1944.<\/font><\/span><\/p>\n
