Like some of the others, the presentation of the flag makes what might be a run of the mill photo into something special.
The flag does make the display.
Also, the 16th Infantry is a desirable regular Army regiment with a great history. Items associated with that unit are desirable.

Thanks for pointing out the regiment history. I only meant run of the mill in terms of the photo's aesthetic appeal.
I understand and "man in a chair" photos are very common and are usually of the dime a dozen variety.
Thanks again for looking,
Scott
