dead soldiers
Party's empty bottles
Dead soldiers are empty bottles or cans, especially of alcohol, left after a party or drinking session.
The metaphor treats the containers as casualties of the night's consumption: We woke up to find dead soldiers all over the living room.
The phrase emphasizes aftermath and cleanup.
