“With the army men,” Arsyaf said when asked whom he was photographed with.

He said that what intrigued him most were the weapons and the clothes worn by the soldiers.

“The weapons and the clothes,” he said.

Another visitor, Viktoria (29), came with her child, Gabriel (9). She said her son was curious to see the soldiers up close.

“My child was curious to see the soldiers up close, so I brought him along,” Viktoria said.

Upon seeing the Marine soldiers, Gabriel was immediately interested in taking photos.

According to Viktoria, the booth was quite crowded because many children came with their parents.

“It’s busy but interesting. The children also look happy,” she said.

Gabriel said the one thing that attracted his attention the most was the soldier wearing the ghillie suit.

“The one wearing the leaf outfit,” Gabriel said.

He was fascinated because the outfit made the soldier look like he was camouflaged.

“Because it’s like camouflage,” he added.

When asked about his aspirations, Gabriel said he wanted to be a soldier.

“I want to be a soldier,” Gabriel said.

Besides taking photos with the soldiers, visitors could also see various equipment displayed at the booth.
