Black and white photo of two men in military uniforms with white shirts and dark ties. Both have their hands raised as if swearing or giving an oath. The man on the left has short dark hair and is wearing glasses. On his uniform are visible buttons, service ribbons, an organizational patch, and a name tag that says "Davenport". The man on the right has short dark hair and also has buttons, service ribbons, and a patch that says "IX" on his uniform. On his shoulder is what appears to be the rank insignia of Colonel. In the background is a U. S. flag and numerous ribbons with dates on them. There is also a cloth with portions of the words "United States" and the date "1776". There is a white border on all sides. On the back in ink is "Sworn in Davenport" and "84%". A red stamp says "Photo by SP/5 M. L. Fromms". In pencil is "2200".
