    Military personnel are carrying a casualty on a litter/stretcher across a grassy field toward a waiting medical evacuation helicopter. The helicopter, marked with a red cross indicating medical/MEDEVAC designation, has its rotors spinning and appears ready for immediate departure. This appears to be a medical evacuation drill or training exercise.

Several soldiers are carrying what appears to be a litter/stretcher with a simulated casualty, while a lead soldier moves forward with a rifle at the ready. An observer/evaluator in mixed civilian-military attire stands to the side monitoring the exercise.
