    A person wearing a white jacket and black beanie hat is launching or catching a small consumer drone (appears to be a DJI Mavic Mini or similar model) with both hands raised overhead. The setting appears to be an outdoor, open terrain environment with rocky and grassy landscape in the background. The drone's propellers appear to be spinning, suggesting it is either being launched or retrieved.

    Green Berets assigned to 10th Special Forces Group (Airborne) attach a high-frequency radio antenna to a drone to elevate the antenna during a high-frequency radio shot in Kangerlussuaq, Greenland, on Aug. 18, 2026, as part of Operation Apex Indigo. U.S. Special Operations Command North operates in Greenland in close coordination with the Kingdom of Denmark to evaluate basic survival, search and rescue, cold-weather mobility, and communications infrastructure operations in the harshest environment on Earth, ensuring U.S. SOF capability to survive and thrive under any circumstances.

    Four individuals wearing white camouflage overalls are setting up what appears to be a field radio antenna or wire antenna on a rocky hilltop in a tundra-like landscape. The terrain features rolling hills, sparse vegetation, and a small pond visible in the background. The activity suggests a military or paramilitary field communications exercise in a subarctic or arctic environment.
    Two individuals dressed in white suits or coveralls stand on a rocky highland plateau, appearing to operate or observe a drone or kite flying high above them on a tether. The landscape features rolling alpine hills, sparse vegetation, a small dark lake, and distant structures on a ridgeline. The scene is set under a dramatic, partly cloudy sky with diffused sunlight illuminating the terrain.
    Three individuals wearing white full-body suits are operating a tethered drone in a remote, mountainous landscape under a dramatic cloudy sky. A visible tether line connects the drone high in the air to the ground team below. The setting appears to be an open highland or tundra environment with rocky terrain and sparse vegetation.
    Three individuals dressed in white coveralls/jumpsuits are operating a quadcopter drone from an elevated rocky outcrop in a mountainous, arid landscape. One person on the left appears to be holding a remote controller while the others observe the drone in flight. The scene suggests a coordinated drone operation, possibly for surveying, research, or filming purposes.
    Two individuals wearing matching white camouflage-patterned suits stand on an elevated rocky terrain overlooking a large body of water with mountains in the background. The person in the foreground faces away from the camera wearing a black beanie, while the person in the background faces forward wearing a cap and appears to be holding a thin cord or line. The landscape suggests a remote, cold-weather environment, possibly Patagonia or a similar sub-arctic region.
    A person dressed in white work clothing and a cap stands on a rocky hilltop, holding up what appears to be a directional antenna or signal-receiving device. In the background, a telecommunications tower and associated ground equipment are visible, set against a mountainous landscape with overcast skies. The setting appears to be a remote, arctic or sub-arctic region based on the terrain and vegetation.
    A person dressed in white work clothing stands on a rocky elevated plateau holding what appears to be a small antenna or directional equipment, facing a vast mountainous landscape. To their right is a yellow metal safety railing structure with a red beacon or warning light mounted on top. The setting appears to be a remote industrial or monitoring installation situated in rugged, treeless highland terrain.
    A person wearing a white uniform with a US flag patch and black beanie is crouching outdoors in a rugged, open landscape. They are operating what appears to be a military-style green radio or communications device, with a small quadcopter drone placed on the ground nearby. The setting appears to be a remote, arid terrain with rocky outcroppings and hills in the background.
    A person wearing a white jacket and black beanie hat is launching or catching a small consumer drone (appears to be a DJI Mavic Mini or similar model) with both hands raised overhead. The setting appears to be an outdoor, open terrain environment with rocky and grassy landscape in the background. The drone's propellers appear to be spinning, suggesting it is either being launched or retrieved.
    Two individuals wearing white coverall suits are kneeling behind a large boulder in an open, hilly terrain. A quadcopter drone is hovering overhead, connected by a thin line or wire to what appears to be a payload suspended beneath it. The scene suggests a drone delivery or retrieval operation, possibly in a training or field exercise context.
    Four individuals wearing white camouflage overgarments are gathered on a rocky hilltop or ridge in a mountainous, tundra-like landscape. They appear to be setting up or operating a field radio antenna mast, with guy-wires extending outward from a central pole. The terrain, vegetation, and overcast sky suggest a subarctic or alpine environment.
