Kneeling next to a freshly dug grave, a World War II US Army combat infantry soldier is mourning and crying for one of his "Brothers in Arms". A makeshift white camouflage cloth covered helmet propped on the handle of the military field shovel used to dig the grave is an impromptu memorial marker. His snow covered gloved hand is held over his heart as he says goodbye to a friend and comrade. The soldier is dressed in an authentic period-correct uniform with historically accurate helmet, equipment, tools, medical gear, insignia, etc. Professional reenactment actors/models at the January-February 2016 Utah "WWII US Military Winter Whites" retro revival photo shoot.
