This is an original 1936 halftone print of two Japanese military boys. The caption writes, "The army in Japan means the clique of officers who aspire to run the country, not the 250,000 farm boys who do exercises like these at a corporal's comand. But though Japan is, strictly speaking, a more militaristic country than Italy or even Germany, its militarism does not deafen you with drums..."
