    Two U.S. Army soldiers are conducting a water crossing exercise, using a rope line suspended above a body of water to transport equipment. One soldier stands on the muddy bank while the other is wading in the water, and they are cooperatively handling a large military rucksack suspended from the rope. The setting appears to be a wooded area during autumn, consistent with a field training exercise.
