Suddenly, they drop to the ground, as a low flying airplane passes overhead (unseen). They get back on their feet again. Next, a burning army truck is seen with a dead soldier lying nearby. (He wears an armband and is likely a medic.) American soldiers wade ashore from a landing craft tank (LCT) through surf, at what appears to be low tide. Another LCT (#587) is beached nearby.
