    A formal U.S. Army military ceremony is taking place on a parade ground, likely a change of command or activation ceremony. Two senior officers are prominently centered, exchanging or presenting a unit guidon alongside an American flag. Large formations of soldiers in ACU (Army Combat Uniform) are standing at attention in a semicircle around the ceremony area.

    Col. Scott Jackson (right), commander, 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division, steps in and hands over the 1st Battalion, 30th Infantry Regiment “Battle Boars," battalion colors to Lt. Col. Mark Olsen signifying in traditional fashion Olsen’s assumption of command of the 1-30th Infantry, here at the Marne Garden, Jan. 22. Olsen’s assumption of command ceremony comes at a time of change for the Battle Boars, as they are gearing up for a restructuring of their ranks to exclude mechanized infantry and to return to a light infantry designation.
