Mass gymnastics of young men on a sports field

In the low sun, rank after rank of young men in dark shorts and bare feet or light shoes, stripped to the waist, swing their arms over their heads and bend forward together, their long shadows falling across the trodden grass; the rows reach far back into the distance. The source counts physical training among the activities of Soviet soldiers.
