Three-time war veteran shares his photos
In his West Virginia home, Peter Ruplenas, a three-time war veteran spends his days thumbing through his personal photography collection.
His compilation is vast and includes countless photographs of B-24 bombers, soldiers in the field and the aftermath of war.
He holds up a photograph of himself taken by fellow photographer Dick Durrance during the Vietnam War. In it, Ruplenas trudges through a rice paddy after returning from a sweep in Cu Chi, Vietnam. He struggles to carry all his gear, but his grip is firm on his 35-millimeter camera.
Ruplenas retired from the Army in 1970 and says he now enjoys spending time with his granddaughter and seven adopted alley cats.
