    A U.S. Army soldier in full Operational Camouflage Pattern (OCP) uniform is moving through a grassy field while carrying a heavy rucksack. The name tape reads 'TOWNSEND' and three stars are visible on the chest, indicating the rank of Lieutenant General. The soldier appears to be conducting a ruck march or post-airborne jump recovery exercise.

    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.
