    A formal military ceremony is taking place in which a civilian man in a dark suit is assisting a female naval officer in white dress uniform with what appears to be a gold insignia or rank device. The naval officer is smiling broadly, suggesting this is a promotion or award ceremony. A third individual is partially visible in the background, and multiple flags are displayed behind them.

Howard is the first woman to be promoted to the rank of admiral. Her shoulder boards had to be custom-made, the first female four-star shoulder boards in U.S. Navy history.
