Description

Five unidentified male soldiers resting on the ground. All are dressed in shorts and are shirtless. The foreground soldier lays on his right side, propping his head up on his bent arm. Behind his head another soldier sits with his knees pulled up and head is facing down. On the middle right of the drawing, three soldiers lean against an unidentifiable object. Two have their right hands on their chest and the third, wearing a slouch hat, has his hands clasped in front on his stomach.
