DescriptionPhotograph, Black and white; Official vertical image of two men in scrubs and scrub caps during a training surgery in the operating room in sick bay. There is a body on an operating table between them and large lights above them. One of them is working on what appears to be a leg in which the lower half has been amputated. The other man is wearing glasses and is watching the first man. Both men, likely doctors or surgeons, have light skin and dark hair. There is a cloth over the body's other leg and the foot is visible. There are surgical tools on a tray next to the operating table. There is a white border around the image.

Back reads "Fake Injury - Training" handwritten in black ink.
