This artwork depicts a group of Soldiers engaged in one of the most enduring clichés of military life: hurry up and wait. The group waits to board a C-17 Globemaster III aircraft to deploy overseas. Many sets of legs are visible and one Soldier has calmly accepted the endless wait and is seated on his pack.
