    A formal military ceremony is taking place on the flight deck or well deck of a naval vessel marked with the number '4'. Personnel in USMC desert MARPAT camouflage uniforms are assembled in formation, with a color guard bearing the United States flag and what appears to be a Marine Corps unit guidon. The ceremony appears to be a change of command, award, or unit formation event conducted aboard ship.
