This image appears to be a photographic negative. It shows a helicopter that has a large cross symbol on its front, suggesting it is a medical or rescue helicopter. Visible on the left side of the image is a person walking away from the helicopter, seemingly dressed in military or work clothing. The background includes trees and a hazy landscape, which might indicate this image was taken in an outdoor or rural area. The overall inverted colors, typical of a negative, create a stark contrast with the darker sky and bright ground.

This is a negative image showing a scene during the Vietnam War era. It features a military helicopter, likely a Huey (UH-1 Iroquois), identifiable by its design and the large medical cross symbol visible on its side, indicating it is being used for medical evacuation (medevac) purposes. The number "123" is visible above the cross on the helicopter's nose.

In the background, there is a soldier walking towards the helicopter, dressed in typical combat gear of the time, with the ground appearing rough and possibly muddy. The negative image reverses the natural colors, making dark areas appear light and vice versa, which is why the sky is dark, and the grass and other surroundings appear light-colored. This type of image would have been common for archival and media purposes during the 1960s and 70s.
