Between tiers of canvas bunks hung with packs and rifles, a crowd of American soldiers in fatigues, field jackets and caps stands and leans in a circle; on the floor in front several men squat and kneel over a game of cards, one holding up a card, and a man in a leather jacket watches with his hands on his hips. The source calls the scene a reenactment and describes a group of GIs in the hold of a ship bound for Germany, playing blackjack.
