Description

A group of uniformed soldiers sits and stands on the back of the Meuse Canal/River in France during World War I. The bank is sandy or dirt with a few trees along the right back, behind the soldiers. The opposite bank, on the left side has either small trees or a tall crop or shrubs with electrical poles behind. In the sky is a darkness that could be coming from far in the distance. Behind the men is a pile of supplies.
