Sergeant Major James Boutin, the senior enlisted advisor with Special-Purpose Marine Air-Ground Task Force Crisis Response-Africa, stands at ease amongst senior enlisted Spanish personnel before the beginning of the ceremonial parade celebrating the 478th anniversary of the Spanish Marine Corps. The Spanish Marines motto, “brave by land and sea,” is depicted above the Spanish colors in the open ceremonial ground and further demonstrates the common theme of pride and tradition in both the U.S. and Spanish forces.
