    A group of U.S. Army soldiers in ACU (Army Combat Uniform) are conducting a ceremonial cannon firing on a grassy field. The cannon has just been discharged, with visible muzzle flash and a large plume of white smoke billowing to the right. The word 'COUNTRY' is visible on the cannon barrel, suggesting this may be a unit-designated ceremonial piece.
