Student photographer's analysis of the photo:

This hiking keychain is very special to me because of the star and the word, Army. It makes me feel like wanting to be in the Army to save our country, to be there for the ones who died just like they risked their lives for us. When you are in the Army, you can be recognized. The picture is dark and light around it. It's also silver and awesome. The star is very cool, and I like it.
