Topic: Modern soldiers at drill

Action: A line of 14 soldiers present arms. They wear Western dress with a straw hat. An officer is looking at them. Behind them, a larger group of soldiers march leftwards.

Image Particulars: This is probably barracks ground. In the first years of the modern army, queues were kept. They were coiled in a bun on the nape, causing a forward slant of the hat.
