A training session?

Look at the row of kneeling, medic in the middle, two with their backs -al paying attention it seems to the medic. Overturned stripped vehicle with cargo strewn around. Lessons to be learnt.

Looks to me like a mine strike.

I thought the same thing but it happened long before this gathering. All 4 tires were "removed" from that jeep. I'd say maybe "hey fellas, this is as good as any spot to stop" kind of deal.

I agree with BAR. Top center is a GI with a metal detector. The rear axle alignment suggest a mine/IED etc.
Is it a JEEP? Center crossmember looks different.

Yep, it's a jeep, a Willys MB as best I can tell.
