Description

From inside a dark military transport helicopter, two soldiers are seen. One soldier is kneeling by the open doorway, near an American flag waving in the wind. A second military transport helicopter is visible in the background, flying above a green field. The soldier is wearing camouflage clothing and a helmet. The lighting inside the helicopter is dim. The scene suggests a moment of transit and national pride. The view is through the open door of the aircraft.
