Remembering NPR journalist David Gilkey, who died in Afghanistan 10 years ago

It's been exactly a decade since award-winning NPR photojournalist David Gilkey and NPR interpreter Zaihullah Tamanna were killed on assignment in Afghanistan — the only NPR staff ever killed in the line of duty.

Today, Here & Now takes a moment to remember Gilkey, who was traveling as an embedded journalist with the Afghan National Army, and was ambushed after rebels were tipped off that a convoy of Americans had entered Helmand province.

Among those who knew Gilkey was NPR’s veteran Pentagon reporter, Tom Bowman, who joins host Anthony Brooks to remember his former colleague.
