not titled [soldiers creating souvenirs]

Three soldiers are kneeling down, each making their own souvenirs to take away from the Mametz Wood. In the background are shattered tree stumps and in the foreground are some empty bomb shells. One man is heating a piece of wood, the second is chiseling and the third is possibly painting.
