Imperial Japanese Army soldiers with K9 on rooftop

Here's a neat photo I thought I would share...

Very cool pic...Love how the dogs are sitting up there with them - it's a wonder they were able to get them up there unless they came out a window.. Good shot of a nice katana and I love the helmets! Nice to see a colour pic too!

Thanks for showing!

And how they're all looking in the same direction too. Hard to capture an image like this even if it was posed. Definately somewhere in China...

What was the photographer standing on? :speechless1:

What was the photographer standing on?

Maybe the owners of the home were midgets and the roof was only 5 feet off the ground? ;)

A very nice photo. The dogs seem to be concentrating on the same thing as the soldiers, if it was staged then they have done a good job.

Thanks for sharing.

This is one of those images, that the more you look at it-- the ODDER it seems.

1) what did the dogs "track"-- UP ONTO A ROOF?

2) where did whoever or whatever THAT was... go?

3) What were the dogs supposed to DO, up on a roof, anyway?

4) What are German shepherd dogs doing in the Japanese army?

This could be the image to start a "write a 1,000 words short story" contest.
