He/she's naked because his/her home got torched with everyone else inside and no time to put on clothes before being overrun by soldiers out to kill them. Ha ha.
I like how someone took a legendary, 45-year-old, iconic photograph, and slapped a (C) 2004 watermark on it

[QUOTE=icypenguin;27577256]Why were they not wearing clothing in the first place?[/QUOTE] maybe they were in bed with no clothing maybe they were taking a shower maybe they were changing, does it matter AT ALL?
[QUOTE=icypenguin;27577256]Why were they not wearing clothing in the first place?[/QUOTE] Clothing is burned off. The napalm is actually STILL on her, the photo just didn't capture the flames. Although she did survive.
