  • British army Parachute Regiment recruits are suffering from fatigue on a rigorous forced march conducted as a squad, over undulating terrain with each candidate carrying a Bergen (backpack) weighing 35 pounds (plus water) and a weapon. The lads are slowly buckling under the weight of backpack Bergens and weapons carried on a hot day and without drinking enough fluids. The 10-mile march must be completed in 1 hour and 50 minutes and it forms part of the 14-week long Pegasus (P) Company selection programme that recruits wanting to join the British Army's elite Parachute Regiment, held regularly at Catterick army barracks in Yorkshire, need to pass (with other tests) before earning the right to wear the esteemed maroon beret.

  • Employees of the former US giant ENRO corporation at the London offices in March 2000, stand at the doors to a lift (elevator) amid glass and polished steel. We are looking up at them from the ground floor as they wait for the lift to bring them down the building’s atrium. This is in the months before the company’s subsequent collapse with the loss of 22,000 people worldwide. Enron Corporation was an American energy company based in Houston, Texas. Before its bankruptcy in 2001, Enron was one of the world's leading electricity, natural gas, pulp and paper, and communications companies, with claimed revenues of nearly $101 billion in 2000. Oblivious to their employer’s troubles, the two men seem relaxed in this workplace which allowed them to work in casually dress, rather than in formal suits, an apparent hallmark of the company’s lax work ethic.
