Publicly owned?
Militarty personel hae a right to privacy, don't you know?
If Howard Dean wishs to publicize his borther coming home---fine.
Taking those pics is a privlege, not a RIGHT.
As I recall, the photos of Dean's brother were taken during the Presidential primaries. Hmmm, using the death of your own brother to further your image. THAT'S respect.
Photos taken by the military photographers are by definition public property, subject to the FOIA.
