    A military service member in camouflage uniform and helmet is unloading cardboard boxes from a UH-1 Huey helicopter in an arid desert environment. The boxes are labeled as U.S. Government property from The Wornick Company, Cincinnati, OH 45242, indicating military ration (MRE) supplies. This appears to be a field resupply or logistics operation conducted in a desert training or operational area.
