Description

Aerial view of the Australian naval boxing tournament held in Scotland, showing how several ships were lined up next to the dock to accommodate the spectators. A group of officers is seated in an enclosure in front of the boxing ring, while rows of sailors watch on three sides. The Japanese flag hangs behind the officers' enclosure; nearest to the camera is an arrangement of three flags.
