    A group of military personnel wearing MARPAT (Marine pattern) camouflage uniforms and M40/MCU-2P style gas masks are standing in a line inside what appears to be a concrete building filled with smoke or gas. This appears to be a CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear) training exercise, commonly known as a 'gas chamber' drill. The personnel are standing at attention while exposed to the smoky environment to test their protective equipment.
