The retired soldiers stand tall in the photograph, with proud and seasoned expressions reflecting a lifetime of service and sacrifice. The lines etched on their faces tell stories of valor and resilience, a poignant reminder of their unwavering dedication to protecting their country. I like this shot!

This is an interesting and enjoyable picture,my friend!
These re-enactors are probably better equipped ( and much cleaner ) than actual confederate troops of the early 1860s were!

Comment from Susan F. M. T.
An interesting Black & White picture of this line of Confedarate Army Soldiers in the American Civil war between April 1861 & April 1865 the only thing uniform about their "Uniforms" is the fact they are each carrying a gun. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera & editing techniques& sharp focus. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Glena Jessee-King
Suppose "U" could be for Uniform as that is the first letter. The line of soldiers in interesting and that you could get them in a straight line is skilled work; only a few are not standing straight.
