    A winter scene showing a snow-covered open field with a lone figure standing in the foreground, facing a group of people gathered near a fenced perimeter line in the background. Multiple utility poles with overhead wires cross the scene, and a treeline of frost-covered conifers and shrubs is visible beyond the fence. The image has a high-contrast, stylized color treatment giving it a blue-purple tonal quality.

    Students in Cold-Weather Operations Course class 21-04 complete field training pulling ahkio sleds of equipment on snowshoes Feb. 18, 2021, at a training area at Fort McCoy, Wis. Students complete many miles of ruck marching in the snow and cold during the course. Sometimes students move in snowshoes and skis covering dozens of miles. Students also complete training terrain and weather analysis, camouflage and concealment, and risk management. They also learn about properly wearing issued cold-weather clothing and how to prevent cold-weather injuries. The training is coordinated by the Fort McCoy Directorate of Plans, Training, Mobilization and Security. (U.S. Army Video by Scott T. Sturkol, Public Affairs Office, Fort McCoy, Wis.)
