Oil painting on canvas showing the aftermath of a raid during World War I. Depicted is a dead soldier lying on his back an empty dirt road. His rifle and helmet are lying on the ground beside him. There are two forms on the other side of the road, possibly more dead or wounded soldiers. There are two tall poles lining the road behind the soldier. In the background, fading into the distance at the end of the road, are several buildings. The scene is hazy and the sun is low on the horizon at right. Signed by the artist at bottom left, "Harvey Dunn, A.E.F. 1918"
