DescriptionMen, some in suits and hats, some in uniform, walk along a path through an open grassy area. A few gravestones are in the background near trees. Children, mostly girls, walk behind the men. Some men and girls carry American flags. Some carry plants or baskets of flowers. Some men have mustaches or beards. Some wear medals. The large brick residential buildings at the foot of the hill in the background are probably on Zion Street.
