    A U.S. Army soldier identified by name tape as 'FISHER' kneels in a posture of mourning or prayer before a battlefield cross memorial display in what appears to be a gymnasium. The memorial consists of a rifle with bayonet fixed into a platform, a pair of tan combat boots, dog tags, medals, and unit patches — the traditional 'Fallen Soldier Battle Cross.' A large formation of uniformed soldiers sits in the background as witnesses to the memorial ceremony.
