The guy shooting him was a Vietnamese ally of ours who ended up becoming a pariah for the rest of his life, since no one knew the story behind the picture. Even tried opening up a restaurant in Virginia but had to close, fearing for his own safety.

The executioner was Nguyễn Ngọc Loan, a South Vietnamese general who was the chief of police. The prisoner was allegedly the commander of a VC military group which targeted South Vietnamese police and their families. There's some debate about whether he was actually in that position, but he was definitely a member of the VC.

not sure if it's really "iconic" but it goes with the theme of the board
