    A U.S. Army soldier in ACU (Army Combat Uniform) camouflage is hand-launching a small fixed-wing UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle), consistent with the RQ-11 Raven or similar small UAS. The launch is taking place on a grassy field adjacent to a chain-link fenced military compound with multiple olive-drab military tents visible in the background. The setting appears to be a training exercise at a military installation.
