    A military aviator or aircrew member in an olive green flight suit is conducting a pre-flight inspection of an aircraft inside a hangar. He is wearing a helmet with ear protection and a survival/parachute pack on his back, and is closely examining or manipulating a panel or access point on the aircraft's fuselage. The hangar structure is visible in the background with corrugated metal roofing.
    Military personnel in olive green flight suits are working around a fighter jet in what appears to be a hangar or flight line environment. The foreground figure wears a flight helmet with 'HAYNI' visible on it and is seated at or operating ground support equipment. Multiple ordnance/munitions are visible mounted under the aircraft's wing.
    A military aviation technician, identified by the name 'TRIMBLE' on their helmet, is kneeling beneath an aircraft performing an inspection or maintenance task. The individual is wearing a red and white flight deck helmet, hearing protection, goggles, and a tactical vest while reaching up into an undercarriage panel. A yellow equipment bag marked 'GF7-230-3-6' is visible hanging from their shoulder.
