    A large military multi-axle truck in olive drab camouflage paint is entering or exiting a river at a boat ramp, carrying what appears to be a folded or collapsed pontoon bridge section or amphibious equipment partially submerged in the water. At least one uniformed soldier is visible in the cab operating the vehicle. The setting appears to be a training or engineering exercise at a riverbank surrounded by trees.
