    A U.S. Marine in desert MARPAT camouflage uniform is kneeling on the ground operating a manual jack or leveling mechanism beneath a large military bridge structure painted olive drab green. The soldier is using a long-handled tool to adjust or stabilize the support leg of what appears to be a tactical bridging system. The setting appears to be a training or field exercise environment in an arid, scrubland terrain.

    Cpl. James Stroeher, a combat engineer with Bridge Company, 7th Engineer Support Battalion, 1st Marine Logistics Group uses a 20-ton jack to lift the end of a medium girder bridge so other engineers can form a stabilizing platform for the massive bridge aboard Camp Pendleton, Calif., Sept. 21, 2015. Marines from 7th ESB and 1st Combat Engineer Battalion, 1st Marine Division are conducting various engineer training events alongside British Royal Engineers from the 54 Commando Squadron in coming weeks as part of annual large-scale exercise Black Alligator.

    A U.S. Marine in desert MARPAT camouflage uniform is kneeling on the ground operating a manual jack or leveling mechanism beneath a large military bridge structure painted olive drab green. The soldier is using a long-handled tool to adjust or stabilize the support leg of what appears to be a tactical bridging system. The setting appears to be a training or field exercise environment in an arid, scrubland terrain.
    Military personnel in desert camouflage uniforms are assembling or positioning a large green military bridge structure at the edge of a ravine or embankment. The soldiers appear to be working on the near end of the bridge, using wooden planks as supports or cribbing beneath the structure. The setting appears to be an arid, semi-desert training environment.
    Military personnel in mixed camouflage uniforms are collaboratively handling a large metal bridging or matting panel during what appears to be a field training exercise. The soldiers are working together to lift or position a heavy segmented metal grate structure, suggesting engineer or bridging unit training. The low-angle perspective emphasizes the length of the equipment and the coordinated teamwork involved.
    Military personnel in camouflage uniforms are constructing or assembling a wooden panel bridge over a trench or gap in arid terrain near a coastline. The structure appears to be a tactical bridging system with green-painted wooden slat panels. The activity appears to be a training exercise involving both U.S. Marines (MARPAT camouflage) and soldiers in a different camouflage pattern.
    A large group of military personnel from two units pose for a group photograph on a military bridge spanning a coastal canyon or ravine. The group includes both US Marines and British Royal Engineers from 54 Commando Squadron, identifiable by their respective uniforms and flags. The setting appears to be a coastal training area with sandy cliffs and ocean visible in the background.
