Thanks for you comments.

I prefer the color because of the flat, detail-less skin in the BW

The colour pic has a lot of detail around the eyes and forehead that are missing from the BW.
For the BW I would have gone for a much tighter crop and enhanced the details to give the face more character. Added a bit of contrast to lessen the distraction of the veil.

OR
For the Afghan survivor look....

Super pic in the first place

They both look this way to me -- one just happens to also lack color...
