What I've heard from agency - you need some knowledge of military, for example taking some pictures at military events, training, then with that experience and portfolio you have more chances to be sponsored by press agency to be sent with accreditation as foreign corespondent photojournalist. You usually travel with a military transport stucked between bombs, with no comfort at all - you become one with the bomb. Then you try to survive and not lose your mind. I've heard that guy had LSD with him in Afghanistan which saved him.
The same. The circle is complete. Cats and flowers are perfection.
