Spanish Marines with 5th Rifle Company, 2nd Battalion raise their gaze as a symbol of respect to the national colors during the Spanish Marine Corps’ 478th anniversary parade near San Fernando, Spain, Feb. 27, 2015. The parade included a memorial to fallen comrades as well as a ceremonial pass in review before the official party. This is the first time U.S. Marines with Special-Purpose Marine Air-Ground Task Force Crisis Response-Africa attended the ceremony as a testament to the partnership between the NATO allies and the shared bond between Marines.
