Chapelle was not killed by landmine. she was killed when on patrol with a marine platoon, the lieutenant in front of her kicked a tripwire boobytrap consisting of a mortar shell with a hand grenade attached to the top of it. a piece of shrapnel hit her in the neck, (which you can see in the photo)and died soon after - hence the impromptu medical attention and photo opportunity. I'd put this in but have no cites and am no good at editing.

:: The Minox is not indicative of involvement with spy services.(even 'I' have a minox spy camera) She was merely trying to sneak the camera in so she could take her pictures of the shady group that had been smuggling people out of the country. Indeed she had the minox and film taped to her body with band-aids and when she was arrested she managed to dump it out a window (Fire in the Wind. page 203) I doubt she was any more involved with spooks than any other journalist who travels into places you really shouldn't.

How Chapelle was killed

[edit]

Chapelle was not killed by landmine. she was killed when on patrol with a marine platoon, the lieutenant in front of her kicked a tripwire boobytrap consisting of a mortar shell with a hand grenade attached to the top of it. a piece of shrapnel hit her in the neck, (which you can see in the photo)and died soon after - hence the impromptu medical attention and photo opportunity. I'd put this in but have no cites and am no good at editing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.229.197.254 (talkcontribs) 09:26, January 7, 2007
