    A group of military or special operations personnel in olive/green wetsuits and black helmets are handling a black inflatable rubber assault boat (IBS/Zodiac-type) on what appears to be a metal dock or ramp at the water's edge. The team is working together to either launch or retrieve the craft, with water splashing around them. The setting appears to be a coastal or maritime training exercise.
