    Three U.S. Marines in MARPAT camouflage uniforms are conducting a flag ceremony at a flagpole, with the American flag fully raised and flying in the wind. The event appears to be a formal military ceremony, with seated and standing attendees under white tents bearing the insignia of the Marine Raider Regiment (MARSOC) — identifiable by the skull-and-crossbones diamond emblem with stars. Personnel and civilians in the background are rendering salutes or standing at attention.
