    Two soldiers from different nations — one American and one German — are observing a military helicopter (likely a UH-60 Black Hawk with a medical cross marking) landed in an open field. The American soldier on the left wears OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) and displays a US flag patch and unit patch, while the German soldier on the right wears Flecktarn-pattern uniform with a German flag patch. This appears to be a joint military exercise or medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) training operation.

    U.S. Army Sgt. Jorge Vasquez, a medic with Company C, 1st General Support Aviation Battalion, 111th Aviation Regiment, and a German soldier observe an HH-60M Black Hawk helicopter as it prepares to take off from a field during medevac and hoist training near Erbil, Iraq, Aug. 20, 2016. This training was provided to German, Dutch and Finnish soldiers in order to familiarize Coalition partners with U.S. Army medevac procedures and equipment. The 111th is currently deployed in support of Combined Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve. (U.S. Army Photo by Staff Sgt. Peter J. Berardi)
