    A U.S. Marines MV-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft is parked on a grass field during what appears to be a public open day or air show. Civilians, including children, are boarding or inspecting the aircraft while military personnel in different uniforms stand nearby. The setting suggests a joint military event, possibly in Australia given the presence of Australian Defence Force camouflage uniforms.

    U.S. Marine Capt. Vic Bockman, a pilot with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron-265(REIN), 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, talks to an Australian soldier as children tour the V-22 Osprey during the opening ceremony for Talisman Sabre 15 at the Darwin Show Grounds, July 5, 2015. Talisman Sabre is a biennial exercise that provides an invaluable opportunity for approximately 30,000 U.S. and Australian service members to conduct operations in a combined, joint and interagency environment that will increase both countries’ ability to plan and execute contingency responses, from combat missions to humanitarian assistance efforts.
