Français : Vue en gros plan d'un soldat (major) américain occupé, dans un panier suspendu sous un ballon, à observer le territoire à proximité de lignes de front. Cette photo présente aussi un intérêt paysager, car elle montre que les parcellaires agricoles et la complexité de la mosaïque écopaysagère ont fortement régressé depuis cette époque
