Some War photographers work with a Correspondent or other photographers, some work alone. The job requires the person to move quickly from place to place when opportunities arise, most carry their own equiptment. BTW the only combat photographer in history to be awarded to "Medal of Honor" was William Perkins (USMC) He was "Killed in Action" during a firefight in Vietnam when he through himself on top of a grenade to save fellow Marines.

Why is the role of journalists and photographers so important during wartime?

During wartime civilians have no way of knowing what is going on without someone telling them. We aren't actually there seeing the war, which is why journalists and photographers go overseas. Journalists do this to inform and keep us updated with what is going on, photographers go to offer proof to what the journalists write, because without pictures all we have is the journalist's account. Also some free lance photographers do it to simply make money and to have an account of the war as it progresses.
