Several u.S. Army soldiers of the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF) stand near three French children, outside a church building in France, during World War 1. A large relief of Christ on crucifix is displayed on the wall behind them. One soldier kneels down next to the children and gives them some chocolates. He talks with them.
