    The image shows four military personnel in desert camouflage uniforms operating in what appears to be a training area with sandy terrain and earthen berms. The lead soldier is carrying what appears to be a metal detector or mine-sweeping device, suggesting a route clearance or IED detection exercise. One individual on the right is not wearing body armor or a helmet, possibly indicating a supervising or instructor role.

    Military working dog handlers use a mine detector coupled with environmental cues to find six simulated improvised explosive devices emplaced by explosive ordnance disposal technicians March 24 during a training event at Camp Hansen. While military working dogs are able to identify explosives, it is necessary for the handlers to know how to identify the types of environments where IEDs may be emplaced. The military working dog handlers are with 3rd Law Enforcement Battalion, III Marine Expeditionary Force Headquarters Group, III MEF. Photo by Pfc. Abbey M. Perria
