    A military jet aircraft, identified as aircraft number 112, is being marshaled on a flight line at dusk or dawn by a ground crew member holding blue light wands. Two aircrew members are visible in the tandem cockpit. Name stencils on the fuselage read 'LT JOE MORRIS ROCCO' and 'ENS LINCOLN CARPER ENS MANNIX'.
    A military or security personnel member is photographed in profile against a hazy, low-visibility background that appears to be an airfield or tarmac at dusk or dawn. The individual is equipped with tactical gear including a helmet, hearing protection, eye protection, and a face mask. Blurred lights in the background suggest runway or perimeter lighting obscured by fog, dust, or haze.
