Description
Two contra soldiers in camouflage uniform and black berets hold their firearms. In the foreground, a soldier stands and holds his rifle with his right hand. The soldier behind him kneels with his firearm and looks the other way. In the background are long tubes scattered on the ground and three homes behind that. Both men are holding FN FAL assault rifles of Belgian origin.
