    A U.S. Army soldier in MultiCam/OCP camouflage uniform is cutting a white ribbon with blue scissors in what appears to be a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The soldier is smiling and wearing patches indicating ISAF (International Security Assistance Force) affiliation and a bison/buffalo unit patch. The setting appears to be a forward operating base or military installation, with plywood construction and a Chigo air conditioning unit visible.
    A wooden retail shelf unit displaying men's and general grooming products organized across three visible shelves. Products include deodorants, shaving foam, razors, toothpaste, lip balm, and cotton swabs, all with visible price tags. The shelving appears to be part of a small store or commissary with plywood construction.
    A storage room or warehouse interior containing organized supplies on wooden shelving and pallets. The space holds stacked black plastic cases with latches and labels, packaged white items on shelves, clothes hangers, and canned beverages. The room appears to be an organized supply or equipment storage facility.
    Three military personnel in MultiCam/OCP camouflage uniforms are gathered at a small forward operating base (FOB) store or PX (Post Exchange). The soldier behind the counter appears to be a store operator, while the other two are customers, with one counting cash. The makeshift store is stocked with tobacco products including cigarettes and chewing tobacco on wooden shelving.
    Two soldiers in MultiCam/OCP camouflage uniforms are inside what appears to be a small military forward operating base (FOB) store or supply room. The soldier in the foreground is attaching or reading a handwritten sign on a small refrigerator that reads 'LIMIT 2 DRINKS REPLACE WHAT YOU TAKE.' The room contains shelves stocked with various consumer goods including Arizona iced tea cans, Marlboro cigarettes, cotton swabs, and Gillette Fusion razors.
