The image is a black and white photograph of a group of soldiers in a trench. The trench appears to be in a mountainous area, as there are hills and shrubs in the background. The soldiers are wearing helmets and uniforms, and some are carrying large bags or sacks. They are standing on top of a pile of rubble and debris, which is scattered across the ground. The sky is overcast and the overall mood of the image is somber. The photograph appears to have been taken during World War II.
