Photographer's Note

During last summer NATO exercises in Cape Verde, there was a lot of foreign people in São Vicente Island, both civilian staff and military persons, often uniformed and enjoying the freetime in the city.
The Cape-Verdean army dispatched the Military Police to the streets (in Mindelo, in the case of this photo), more to show off than to do some action; their weapons were just walkie-talkie radios. In a mixed attitude of boredom and relaxation, they did their best, watching the world going by, in the shadow of Café Portugal, in Rua de Lisboa, near the Palácio (background).
