Blackjack on the floor of the hold

Close on the game: on a dark blanket spread on the floor lie a few playing cards; around them sit young soldiers cross-legged or on their heels, one in spectacles, one with tattooed forearms resting on his knees, and more men lean in above them in caps, one pointing at a card. The source describes the GIs playing blackjack.
