A scene taking place during the Second Sino-Japanese War. A female soldier teaches children to read and write during a rest. The boy writes 革命 - Revolution - on a slate, the girl writes 革命到底 - Revolution to the end - in the sand. In the background soldiers march through the tall vegetation.

This is a print from the third impression (July 1977).
