There is respectable commentary on the web suggesting that Capa's famous
photo, like that of the US Marines' flag raising on Iwo Jima, is posed and
stage managed, shot during a lull in the fighting on the Republican front.
The soldier in Capa's photo was a member of the Republican army that
ultimately lost to Franco's Nationists.
