    Two soldiers in full combat gear, including rucksacks and rifles, pose smiling beneath a sign reading '1LT JOHN A. McCOWN II' and the 10th Mountain Division insignia at what appears to be Fort Drum, New York.

    Five U.S. Air Force military personnel pose together in a VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars) hall, holding trophies and awards.

The leftmost individual's name tape reads 'O'Sullivan' and the rightmost uniform displays 'US AIR FORCE' tape.
