Sorry, once more...
Question in his eyes...
The little tank / bike. Can't tell you much, but it's based upon the look of the WW1 German A7V Tank.
The A7V!
What, no upside-down trampoline soldier with a hatchet?

Wait.. TankBike isn't photoshopped?
Actually the 'dance' the New Zealand soldiers are doing is called a Haka. It is a challenge. A Powhiri is a welcoming ceremony. A Haka is performed at the start of the Powhiri, challenging those who enter, but it is not the whole thing.
That's not Harry Potter, but John Lennon. He did a war picture in the 1960s.
tank bike is photoshopped. The actual picture they used is on here somewhere too....
Uniforms on the "Harry Potter" picture look like German WWII uniforms, with their particular bevel on the helmets and Reich eagles. The gun he is holding and the grenade on his belt also suggest WWII. So this is probably a scene from a movie or from some sort of historical reconstruction game.
Soldier kissing a girl over a trench is a still from the Russian movie "Ivan's Childhood".
Pic # 9, is that the shuttle exploding outside while he eats chicken??
Mi24 belongs to polish contingent in Irak
The helicopter is a Russian Hind Gunship.
That's NOT John Lennon in How I Won the War.
that mini tank looks like a fake. Front has solar panels, side guns would not work and the tires were not available during WWII
There actually was a motorcycle tank built by the Germans during WWII. It was called a Kettenkrad.

OK, some comments:
The hockey stick image is from a riot in Canada I believe... some protest against a IMF or World Bank meeting. The guy is hitting tear gas back at the police.
The last image with the cops and white color is from an attempted eviction of a squatted house in the Netherlands (where squatting is legal but evictions still occur in some cases).
the tank catapult is in reality an tank rotary platform to measuring tank infrared radiation
standing near meppen, germany
greetings
The tank bike could be anything, but the guy peeping out is a WWI German soldier and the Iron Crosses are also of WWI style. The "Lola" on the side looks more WWII though...
My Son is stationed at Ft. Bragg.
I shared the pictures with him. I'm one proud Mom.
The confidence training in Finland - crawling under a tank - belongs in the basic training at boot camp. The tank is moving in that picture. Another similar drill is that the recruits dig themselves deep enough foxholes, they crouch inside, and a tank or an armoured personnel carrier is driven over.
Doing this is an incredible adrenalin boost, and many boys want to do it again and again once they have done it for the first time.
Another method of confidence training is the Napalm Range; a 25 m piece of trench with napalm wells on both sides. They are filled with napalm, and the recruits walk quickly through the trench. It is advisable to protect your face with the assault rifle clip. Running is not adviced, because it makes one to breathe the smoke which is toxic.
