A heavyset uniformed officer holds up a golden balance scale in both hands, weighing small brass weights in its pans. He wears a green service tunic with a peaked cap, wire-rimmed glasses, sergeant chevrons, and a medal ribbon bar, with an open book resting on a wooden crate before him.

The composition reads as a legal or judge-advocate allegory of military justice, the scales and open book front and center. Uniform piping, cap insignia, and the delicate scale are all clearly modeled.

A distinctive character figure for headquarters, courtroom, and administrative dioramas, and an unusual command piece for mid-century wargame and display scenes.
