Stumbled across this while trawling the [National Archives](https://catalog.archives.gov/id/55205581) and found the composition very striking. The portal framing the writer (Clarence B. Ford, 308th Field Signal Battalion) and revealing the destroyed surroundings.

I dunno, the way he is holding that pencil tells me he is sketching. Given the precarious position furthers that theory.
Could be wrong tho, just some dude, and semantics or some shit.
