The image is a black and white photograph of a group of soldiers in a trench. The trench appears to be underground, as there is a large pipe running along the right side of the image. The soldiers are wearing helmets and uniforms, and some are carrying rifles or other weapons. They are standing in a line, with their backs to the camera, and appear to be looking towards the camera. The background is dark and rocky, and there are a few trees and shrubs visible. The image is taken from a low angle, looking up at the soldiers.
