    DescriptionSoldiers attempt to put on gas masks during a gas attack drill at the Air Depot Training Center (later Sandia Base) in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The men are standing on a dirt road and simulating the safety measures of putting on their gas masks. One man stands near the right of the frame in the background and monitors the drill. Behind the men who are walking and standing on the road are military vehicles.
