    A U.S. Army soldier named Holmes, wearing ACU (Army Combat Uniform) with a 2nd Infantry Division patch, is having a medal or award pinned onto his uniform by a civilian woman. The ceremony appears to be taking place indoors, likely in an office or administrative building. This appears to be a formal military award or decoration ceremony.
