    Three men are engaged in conversation inside what appears to be a large sports stadium or arena. Two of the men are wearing U.S. Army ACU (Army Combat Uniform) digital camouflage uniforms, while the third is dressed in civilian business attire. The setting appears to be a pre-game or event gathering based on visible scoreboard text.

    Army National Guard Col. Mark Campsey visits Minute Maid Park to throw out the ceremonial first pitch in Houston, Texas, Wednesday, Aug. 3, 2011. The Houston Astros baseball club honored Campsey with the gesture as part of his retirement from the Guard after more than 20 years of service. The last several years of his career were as the commander of Houston's 72nd Infantry Brigade Combat Team, and included leading the unit during its 2009-2010 deployment to Iraq, one of the largest deployments of the Texas Army National Guard since World War II. The Houston Astros regularly recognize and support service members and veterans as part of their operations.
