I think we have a good claim for [[fair use]] here, but in an abundance of caution perhaps we should ask Associated Press first.  I'll take the image down pending AP comment on the rights to this famous photo.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 10:45, 19 April 2008 (EDT)

So the poster acknowledges that AP has rights over the image but incorrectly credits the National Archives. Although the images may have been obtained from a government web-site this does not mean that they are available for unrestricted or even fair use. Please see [http://www.archives.gov/research/order/restrictions.html] for the actual conditions of use of the images. I'm sure AP would give permission but it should be obtained first.
