    A team of firefighters or rescue personnel are conducting what appears to be an aircraft rescue training exercise beneath the fuselage of a large military aircraft inside a hangar. The crew is working to extract a simulated casualty using a rescue litter/basket stretcher in a confined space scenario. Multiple responders are kneeling and crouching under the aircraft, coordinating the extraction effort.

    Two firefighters are kneeling on a polished concrete floor, working with a yellow Stokes basket stretcher equipped with blue and red restraint straps. The scene appears to be a training exercise, with multiple other uniformed personnel standing and observing in the background. One firefighter is wearing a helmet and the other has a shirt reading 'Charleston Fire Department'.
    A group of firefighters in gray t-shirts and traditional black helmets are gathered on the floor of what appears to be a large hangar or training facility, examining and working with specialized equipment cases. The red hard-shell cases contain what appear to be pneumatic or hydraulic tools with gauges and fittings. A military personnel member in camouflage uniform is visible in the background, suggesting this may be a joint training exercise at a military installation.
    A technician or maintenance worker is crouched inside a narrow, elongated structural cavity, likely the interior of a large aircraft fuselage or cargo hold undergoing maintenance. The space features evenly spaced metal ribs/frames along both sides and ceiling, with numbered station markers visible on the walls. The worker appears to be performing hands-on technical work with tools and cables in a confined space.
