    A formation of U.S. Army soldiers in multicam/OCP uniforms and distinctive black cavalry Stetson hats are assembled on what appears to be a tarmac or airfield in an arid environment. They are carrying unit guidons including a large yellow cavalry regimental flag and smaller red-and-white pennants marked with letters and numbers. The setting and uniforms suggest a military ceremony or formation, likely at a forward operating base in the Middle East.
