A two page spread of black and white photos. On the left page is one large photo of a person on their front, facedown. While their lower back, side, and likely their stomach are not burned, this person sustained burns everywhere else. They can be seen on the upper portion of their back, their arms that are out to their sides and bent up at the elbow, and on their head, as well as their buttocks and the upper portions of their legs, at which point the photograph cuts off. The burns on the lower half of their body look black while the upper portion is a mix of mostly white but also black portions. Two pictures are on the right page. The upper photo is focused on the back and shoulder area of a person who is facedown. Their skin looks mottled, nearly all black with burns. The third picture focuses on a person's face, neck, shoulders, arms, and chest, which are covered with burns.
