Cautious soldier?

Just looks to me like a guy trying to avoid getting his head shot off by not standing up.

[browningautorifle]

You do realize he's at war?

[Amsdorf]

Jim, if you are talking to me, yes, of course.

I'm commenting on the photo caption, I assume it was/is original to the photo, right?

[Thaine]

It would appear that there is another "equally cautious" soldier in the background behind his helment.

[Bill Hollinger]

Good eye Thaine!
