    Two U.S. Army soldiers in MultiCam/OCP camouflage uniforms are handling a POW/MIA flag, appearing to either fold or unfold it near a flagpole. The black flag displays the recognizable POW/MIA silhouette emblem with the text visible in mirror image, suggesting the flag is being held facing outward. The setting appears to be an outdoor military installation or memorial area with trees and a grassy embankment in the background.

    Approximately 40 Army National Guard Soldiers from Kentucky, Florida and Nebraska, volunteered to restore the Cecil Field POW/MIA Memorial park, Sept. 14, in Jacksonville, Florida, while aiding with Hurricane Irma relief and recovery operations.
    While conducting clean-up efforts, Nebraska Army National Guard Spc. Chris Sheen, a religious affairs specialist from Wilcox, and Staff Sgt. Alex Peyton, a master intelligence analyst from Kearney, lowered the tattered and faded remains of damaged American and POW/MIA flags, and respectfully folded them in an impromptu ceremony.
    The Soldiers intend to have the flags disposed of in an honorable and appropriate manner, making way for new flags to proudly fly over the memorial. (Nebraska National Guard photo by Spc. Lisa Crawford)

    Close-up photograph of a military uniform sleeve displaying a shield-shaped patch with a dark embroidered figure on a light background, consistent with a unit or national insignia. An American flag is visible in the blurred background, being held by another person in camouflage uniform. The uniform pattern appears to be OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) used by the U.S. Army.
    Two military personnel in camouflage uniforms are handling a folded American flag. The image is a close-up shot focused on their hands and the flag, showing what appears to be a ceremonial or preparatory flag-handling activity. Both individuals are wearing OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniforms consistent with U.S. Army or Air Force dress.
    The image shows two flagpoles photographed from a low angle against a partly cloudy sky. The right pole displays a tattered and wind-wrapped American flag, while the left pole displays a black POW/MIA flag. Both flags appear weathered and are flying in windy conditions.
    Two military personnel in camouflage uniforms are working together outdoors near what appear to be flagpoles or metal poles. One soldier is being supported or boosted by the other, who is kneeling on the ground, while the standing soldier reaches upward toward the top of a pole. The setting is a grassy area surrounded by tall pine trees under a partly cloudy sky.
