Reservists report with suitcases

Young soldiers in high-collared tunics and side caps walk along a street carrying suitcases and bags, one of them smiling; on a station platform men in civilian suits and caps and in new uniforms crowd together with their luggage, a man in a long black coat among them. The older catalogue identifies them as Dutch reservists. The Netherlands mobilised on 28 August 1939 and kept some 280,000 men under arms until the German attack.
