Children's drawing on legal size off-white paper. The top of the page contains an inscription in pencil that reads "mourtes 18 de octubre de 1983". Below this text is a house coloured green, yellow, and blue. A scene involving a camp and a river has been drawn below this house. This scene contains a red and blue truck, a soldier dressed in green carrying a gun, seven small buildings or tents, and seven human figures drawn in pencil.
