    Military personnel in combat uniforms are conducting what appears to be a search or inspection operation inside a damaged brick building. Three or four soldiers in ACU (Army Combat Uniform) pattern camouflage are examining the floor of a dilapidated structure with debris scattered around. The scene is backlit by natural light coming through a doorway and window, creating strong silhouettes.

    Sgt. Jeremy Brown, a cavalry scout from Fort Hood, Texas, waves a metal detector wand across an abandoned house as Sgt. Michael Benoit, a cavalry scout section leader from Monticello, Minn., and Capt. Sean Tennimon, from Mobile, Ala., commander of Troop C, 7th Squadron, 10th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, Multi-National Division - Baghdad, search for weapons caches or evidence of enemy activity, Oct. 11, 2008, in a muhallah in the Abu T'shir community of the Rashid District in southern Baghdad.
