Photographer who died in Vietnam named honorary Marine

MILWAUKEE (AP) — The photographer believed to be the first female American journalist killed in a war has become an honorary Marine.
Wisconsin native Dickey Chapelle was 47 when she was killed by shrapnel from an exploding land mine while covering the Vietnam War in 1965. She also covered the battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa during World War II.
Her connection to the Marines began when she first visited the front lines on Iwo Jima. She bonded with the Marines by digging her own foxhole and eating the same food they ate.
After she died, her body was escorted home by a Marine honor guard. A memorial was placed near where she was killed on the first anniversary of her death, with a plaque reading: "She was one of us and we will miss her."
Now, she has officially joined their ranks. Chapelle was declared an honorary Marine at the Marine Corps Combat Correspondents Association's annual dinner last month in San Diego, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported .
