    Two U.S. Marines in MARPAT digital camouflage uniforms and combat helmets are working together near a structure, appearing to place or connect an explosive breaching charge. One Marine is handling what appears to be a detonator cord or initiator connected to a gray putty-like material affixed to a door frame or wall. The second Marine is carrying a spool of detonation wire, suggesting this is a controlled demolition or breaching training exercise.
