View of the quarters of the U. S. Sanitary Commission at Brandy Station, Virginia. An American flag flies from the building, which is surrounded by tents and rudimentary wood fence. A group of men lean against the fence next to a horse-drawn wagon and face the camera. Saddled horses stand hitched to the fence on the left side.
