The image shows a group of sailors standing on the deck of a large ship. They are all wearing white uniforms and white caps, and are standing in a line with their backs to the camera. The deck is made of metal and has a metal railing with a chain link fence. There are several pipes and cables running along the sides of the deck. In the background, there is a large metal structure with a ladder and other equipment. The sky is overcast and the overall mood of the image is somber.
