"A SOLDIER'S VIEWPOINT OF WAR" - FERNANDO VILLELA 1968 - 1969

"A SOLDIER'S VIEWPOINT OF WAR" REPLICA BY KOREAN ARTIST - FERNANDO VILLELA 1968 - 1969 I HAD A REPLICA MADE BY A KOREAN WOMAN ARTIST IN 2003 WHILE I WAS STATIONED IN THE US ARMY IN CAMP HUMPHREYS, (PYONTAEK), KOREA MY BROTHER FERANANDO VILLELA PAINTED THIS IMAGE ON A BAMBOO MAT THAT GOT DESTROYED MANY YEARS AFTER. IT IS NOT EXACTLRY LIKE THE ONE HE DID BUT I KEPT THE INTEGRITY OF HIS PAINTING. I PRESENTED TO HIM WHEN I RETURNED FROM MY OVERSEAS TOUR IN KOREA. HE WAS SO SILENTLY SURPRISED THAT THE ARTIST HAD CAPTURED HIS FACE SO CLEARLY. ALSO EXACTLY HOW THEY WERE DROPPED BY THE HELICOPTERS INTO THE COMBANT ZONES. HIS SISTER, US ARMY, 1SG, RETRIED, GLORIA VILLELA MUNIZ
