Servicemen embarking at Mumbai

Servicemen embarking at Mumbai

Military personnel queuing to embark on a ship from a portside with rails. Moveable low fencing to control the orderly flow of hundreds of men carrying kit bags and other items. Row of parked trucks next to a large building with a ‘no smoking’ sign. A small building with a lifebuoy attached and a vehicle parked alongside. Two gangways attached to the ship with one being used by the men embarking. From the ship a man is watching the scene whilst smoking a cigarette.
