    A U.S. Army soldier wearing OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniform with an American flag patch is observing or evaluating a group of soldiers wearing Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) uniforms and red rescue helmets with goggles. The scene appears to be a joint military training exercise focused on urban search and rescue or structural collapse operations, taking place near a metal shipping container and wooden structural props. This likely represents a bilateral military cooperation or humanitarian assistance training event.

    West Point Cadet Christopher Clarkin, a Chinese language major, observes and engages with members of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) during the 13th annual U.S.-China Disaster Management Exchange (DME) that took place at the Oregon National Guard’s Camp Rilea Armed Forces Training Center, November 16-19, 2017, in Warrenton, Ore. U.S. Army Pacific hosts the exchange with the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) every year to foster mutual trust and understanding while sharing lessons learned to increase disaster response in the Pacific region. This year marked first time U.S. Military Academy West Point cadets participated in the event. (Photo by Sgt. Tyler Meister, 115th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment)

    Two military personnel from different armed forces are collaborating on a rope or cord task outdoors. One soldier wears a U.S. Army uniform with the name tape 'SCHAFER' and OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) fatigues, while the other wears what appears to be People's Liberation Army (PLA) digital camouflage uniform with rank insignia. Both are focused on handling a dark rope or cord, suggesting a joint training exercise.
    Three military personnel are gathered outdoors near a small pond on what appears to be a military installation. Two individuals wearing Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) camouflage uniforms are interacting with one individual in US Army ACU (Army Combat Uniform) pattern. They appear to be engaged in a training or demonstration activity involving yellow rope or cordage.
