Der Göttliche Hauch

Some times people forget how they get the reports on there TV screen ,when siting on a dinner with family and friends. This Cameraman lost his life for his work .Doesn’T matter witch nationality race or country a cameraman is from he is the Eyes of the public ,he move to places wher peopel shoud look at ,some times places where wars or other bad things happen too. But without the public eyes in this spots never the world could help or change in a good way at this places. This Reuters cameraman was a local how tray to help his Nation to feed the pictures by working for Reuters .Reuters is probably one of the 2 Biggest news Agencies worldwide many TV stations get there Video footage from them. Even the big ones like CNN or BBC .So never forget the invisible cameraman needs your attention too even when you never will see him befor is dead.
This is personal memory when i have done my first camera work in former yugoslavia for the ORF with Fritz Orter and Antonia Rados and many others .You never want to risk your live but some times it get dangerous ,and when you come home every emergency helicopter feel you fear ,because in that place you come from it was all time a combat helicopter.
Even the solders know the dangerous power of a camera in there operation Field. He will document what will happen .The UNO and the USA would never send troops to support the people there if they don’t see the Pictures of the Cameraman in the first line .
Their military officers come much later and have never that kind of material like the public TV stations produce.
Just one last note , when 6 Solders stand on a place and one cameraman a sniper would shoot first the cameraman than the solders. That’s why some old rules for Journalist like the Charta for Jornalist in War zones how to behalf in War zones due not count anymore .If you are identifiable as Journalist TV or cameraman you are first target for anybody.
Fritz Orter brings out his 2nd Book about the Yugoslavian war ,in the first he mentioned some lines about his camera team too .Thanks for that .
