AP Photographer James Matthew Joseph Pringle, an Irish master of action photography who had pictured war and revolution in the Eastern Hemisphere for a quarter of a century, died Feb. 19. He was 51. In 1943 Pringle, then 25, left Ireland. He went to London and joined the Associated Press, and his first AP job was photographing bomb destruction and fires of the Battle of Britain.

Then, dressed in U.S. Army uniform Pringle carried his camera - and his Irish passport in which he had lifelong pride - across France and Germany. Traveling with U.S. military units, he recorded war scenes from Normandy's pockmarked beaches to Germany's bomb-tattered cities. He was the first photographer to record the horrors of Dachau internment camp.
