    A military static-line parachute jump is in progress from the open rear ramp of a large cargo aircraft, likely a C-130 Hercules, over open water. One jumper has just exited the aircraft and is visible mid-air with their deployment bag extracting, while at least one parachute is already fully deployed in the background. A jumpmaster or safety observer in U.S. Navy digital camouflage uniform stands on the ramp watching the operation.
