Español: Limpieza de un nido de ametralladora enemigo

Un dibujo en carboncillo y crayón muestra un tanque que cruza un terraplén cubierto de hierba sobre una ametralladora, con dos soldados con casco en primer plano y figuras que avanzan a lo lejos. El humo se extiende sobre un paisaje destrozado por alambre de púas.
