    Two military personnel in desert camouflage uniforms are working beneath a hovering helicopter in an arid, dusty environment. One soldier is reaching up to connect or disconnect a yellow cargo hook/sling load attachment from the helicopter's belly, while the second soldier holds a green hose, likely involved in a forward arming and refueling point (FARP) operation. The rotor wash is kicking up significant dust and debris around the personnel.

    Military personnel in desert camouflage uniforms are conducting a helicopter sling-load or external lift operation beneath a large military helicopter hovering at low altitude. Three service members are running across an open field while handling rigging equipment including yellow-handled tools and cables. The setting appears to be a training exercise at a dry, hilly terrain location.
    Two military personnel in desert combat uniforms and tactical vests are reviewing what appears to be a printed map or aerial photograph in an outdoor forward operating base environment. A third individual wearing a white hard hat is partially visible on the right edge of the frame. The setting appears to be an arid, mountainous region consistent with a deployed military environment.
    A large military helicopter, consistent with a Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion, is performing an external sling load operation, carrying a large rectangular cargo load suspended beneath it. The aircraft is flying at low altitude over an arid, hilly terrain under a partly cloudy blue sky. This appears to be a military training or logistics operation.
