It looks like he is wearing bionic leg power.

soldier with exoskeleton prototype for hiking and carrying heavy loads with ease.
It's a powered exoskeleton used by the military to enhance performance and endurance. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powered_exoskeleton

This is a battery powered assist device that allows soldiers to carry heavy loads without undue stress to their legs and backs. It allows them to carry heavier loads with less effort.
It's a demo of Lockheed Martin's HULC (Human Universal Load Carrier) exoskeleton. Originally by Barkeley Bionics, this one is upgraded with a fuel-cell power pack from Protonex, I believe.
According to Google's translation, it is a Human Universal Load Carrier.
tineye.com sure takes the fun out of the mistery pics!
It is a soldier wearing a powered exoskeleton augmentation device.

Urine reservoir and drain system so soldiers don't have to undress to pee.
Augmentation device.
It is a powered exoskeleton used by the military. Mike Egan pointed it out in one of his newsletters earlier in the week! I think Mike's newsletter actually is in the backpack!!!
Besides the exoskeleton, he is wearing a uniform made from Ten Cate Defender textile which is more breathable and flame resistant.
Soldier going over dead elephants
It's a scene from the new Stargate movie. That poor unfortunate soldier has a Goa'uld running up his leg.
Actually, the picture is upside down... He is rehearsing "YMCA" for the Village People's reunion tour!
It is obviously a device that instantly cleans your shoes should you step in dogshit while in combat. I want one!
It's the latest and greatest GI Joe action figure. Watch out for those exaggerated camera angles!
Wow. Came straight here as soon as I checked the mail and plenty of people already got it right.
I may add a link as well:

"US weaponry globocorp Lockheed is pleased to announce the unveiling of its newly-acquired powered exoskeleton intended to confer superhuman strength and endurance upon US soldiers.
Needless to say, corporate promo vid of the Human Universal Load Carrier (HULC™) is available [...]"
This is a new statue of George Bush to show his manly, courageous character.
I think the guy is trying out the Berkeley Bionics Human Exoskeleton
