Oh well, they are indeed polishing the shoes of first row. So it was some kind of demonstration parade, not regular army!
I also notice US flag in the middle and red USSR(?/-ally) flags in the background.

They look too polished for Afghan. BusinessInsider claims photo is from 1920, however Afghan was in war theatre between British and Russ.Fed during that time. What are two guys sitting on the floor hidden behind Sergeant doing, polishing their shoes? Etherway, it is definitely a donation-based army.
