Three Tenth Mountain Division soldiers take a break near a stream after the battle for Riva Ridge. One of the three soldiers is identified by the photographer as Shaw. The soldier farthest from the stream is standing near his knapsack on a snowpacked trail. Two others are beside the stream; one is getting water and the other is drinking. Snow covers the ground.
