The soldier is wearing OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniform with U.S. Air Force insignia.
    Three military personnel in U.S. Army/Air Force uniforms are gathered around a medical simulation table in what appears to be a medical training facility. A senior uniformed officer in multicam/OCP pattern is speaking and gesturing to the other two personnel. The table contains medical training mannequins including an adult torso and an infant simulator, indicating obstetric or pediatric emergency care training.
    A group of military personnel in OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniforms are gathered in what appears to be a medical training or simulation room. One individual on the right appears to be briefing or instructing the group near a patient gurney covered with a white sheet. The room is decorated with camouflage netting on the walls and contains medical monitoring equipment.
    A military personnel member in MultiCam/OCP camouflage uniform is operating a ZOLL medical device, likely a defibrillator or patient monitor, on a white surface. The setting appears to be a field medical station indicated by camouflage netting in the background. A secondary medical monitor is visible in the background, suggesting a medical training or operational environment.
    Three military personnel in camouflage uniforms are engaged in a virtual reality medical training exercise. One soldier kneels on the floor wearing a VR headset and holding controllers, while two others observe from chairs. A monitor displays the VR simulation showing a casualty scenario, branded with 'SimX' software.
