Baking bread plays a vital role in supplying the daily needs of Vietnamese families in the Cam Lo area during the Vietnam War. In this image, taken on May 2, 1969, a member of a 100-member Buddhist cooperative pushes a tray of dough into a large wood-fired oven at the Cam Lo bakery. Operated by the cooperative, the bakery produces enough bread to meet the growing domestic demand of local Vietnamese residents. This photograph was taken by Sgt. Pat Schackmann of the Marine Corps and is part of the collection of American military activities during the Vietnam War.
