This is a black and white
photograph of about twenty disabled veterans in wheelchairs. The men are
waiting in a line on the sidewalk along the wall of an office building. The
wall looks like the facade of a government building, with smooth grey stone and
tall, barred windows. The men wear clothes of the 1940s and 1950s: wide lapels,
white socks and dark shoes, cardigan sweaters. One man smokes a pipe and is
wearing a suit with a wide striped tie and argyll socks. The men hold signs
that say: "How Dare They?"; "Keep Faith in Disabled Vets"; "How About the East Orange VA Hospital"; "We
Did Our Share, Treat Us Right": "PVA"; "Don't Break Promises".
