Description

A winter scene of a soldier standing in front of a Quonset hut with a sign on it saying: "MAIL TODAY, CO. B-P.X., HOURS, 7:30 to 8 am, 12 to 1pm, 5 to 10pm, by ORDER OF COMMANDING OFFICER". The soldier has packages in his arm. Snow covers the ground and another building is visible at right and spruce trees form the backdrop. This may be part of the winter quarters of the shoulders who built and maintained a portion of the Alcan.
