    A military service member in desert camouflage uniform is hand-launching a small fixed-wing UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) in an arid, desert environment. The soldier holds the drone aloft with one arm extended upward while the other arm is outstretched for balance. The setting appears to be a forward operating base or military installation in a desert region.

    Cpl. Ray Vizcaino, a general account balance file clerk with Supply Company, 1st Supply Battalion, 1st Marine Logistics Group, performs a test flight with the Raven B unmanned aerial vehicle. The Raven B is replacing the Dragon Eye system and brings with it an easier to use program and more versatility in the machine's actions with flight and photo taking abilities. Vizcaino demonstrated how it is launched by throwing it into the wind, rather than launching with a bungee cord, as the old system did.

    A U.S. Marine in desert MARPAT camouflage uniform is hand-launching a small fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), likely an RQ-11 Raven or similar small UAS. The photo is taken from a low angle looking upward, with the sun creating a strong lens flare behind the aircraft. The setting appears to be an arid, outdoor environment consistent with a deployed operational location.
    Two military personnel in desert camouflage uniforms are handling a small fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV/drone) in an arid, sandy environment. They appear to be assembling, inspecting, or preparing the UAV for launch. The setting suggests a forward operating base or similar military installation in a desert region.
    Three military personnel in desert camouflage uniforms are gathered around a small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV/drone) on arid, sandy ground. One soldier is bent over examining documents or a checklist near a hard-sided equipment case, while the others observe the UAV. The setting appears to be a forward operating location in a desert environment, consistent with Middle Eastern terrain.

The soldier on the left is holding the UAV while appearing to explain or discuss something with his colleague. The setting appears to be a forward operating base or military installation based on the visible structures and vehicles in the background.
    The image shows a shadow cast on dry, dusty ground that appears to be the silhouette of a small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV/drone) being held by a person. Only the lower legs and feet of the person are visible in the upper left corner, wearing what appear to be military-style boots and camouflage trousers. The ground surface shows multiple boot prints and tire tracks, suggesting a military or operational environment.
