    A group of military personnel in camouflage uniforms are gathered under a wooden gazebo structure at what appears to be a forward operating base. One soldier appears to be addressing the group, gesturing with his hand while others stand or sit on wooden benches listening. The background shows typical military base infrastructure including canvas tent structures and concrete barriers (T-walls).

    Sgt. Dylan Gray, the non-commissioned officer in charge of the Oasis, who is with Company A, 204th Brigade Support Battalion, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, welcomes a new group of soldiers to the Oasis, Jan. 16. Though the Oasis is a retreat for soldiers to relax, there are a few rules that soldiers must be made aware of and adhere to. After the introduction soldiers are free to enjoy the facilities, such as free internet, video games, gym facilities, volleyball and the option to just sleep.

    The image shows a forward operating base or military checkpoint with at least two soldiers in MultiCam/OCP camouflage uniforms. A large Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle is visible in the background along with metal barrier gates and gravel ground cover. The setting appears to be an arid, desert environment consistent with operations in Southwest Asia or the Middle East.
    Two U.S. Army soldiers in MultiCam/OCP camouflage uniforms are examining equipment at what appears to be a forward operating base (FOB). The soldier on the right wears an ISAF patch, indicating deployment to Afghanistan. They appear to be conducting an inventory or inspection of gear stored in a container or storage unit.

    A group of people are playing volleyball on a sandy court enclosed by HESCO barriers at what appears to be a forward operating base or military installation. One player is diving to make a save while others are positioned around the court. Arched military shelter structures (Quonset huts or similar) are visible in the background beyond the barrier wall.
    Three individuals are engaged in a weightlifting session inside what appears to be a military field tent or temporary structure. One person is lying on a bench press performing a dumbbell chest press exercise, while two others are spotting and encouraging him. The setting appears to be an improvised military gym based on the clothing and environment.
