    A soldier in MultiCam/OCP camouflage uniform is kneeling in a green grassy field, gathering or packing what appears to be a parachute or similar silver/gray nylon material. The setting appears to be a drop zone or open field, with trees and rolling terrain visible in the blurred background. The activity is consistent with post-parachute landing recovery procedures.

    Lt. Gen. Stephen J. Townsend, XVIII Airborne Corps Commanding General, gathers his parachute after jumping into Sainte-Mere- Eglise, France on June 5, 2016 to commemorate the 72nd D-Day Landing Anniversary in Normandy. The Jump is conducted to commemorate the sacrifice of Soldiers during World War II, and to foster and nurture U.S. and German relationships, develop interoperability during training, and to provide a basis for future operations in training and real world environments.
