    A soldier in camouflage uniform and helmet kneels on a grassy field, gathering and packing a dark parachute canopy after a landing. In the background, the iconic Mont Saint-Michel abbey rises dramatically from the flat terrain in Normandy, France. A second soldier is visible in the mid-distance, and the overcast sky creates a hazy atmospheric backdrop.
