Description

Sentry at the gates, presumably at the King's palace in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Several unidentified people stand near a driveway as two cars approach. One man is holding up a baton as though he is directing traffic. This photo was taken during a medical trip to treat King Ibn Saud and other members of the Saudi Arabian royal family. Originally called slide SA 10.
