    A formal military ceremony is taking place inside a large tent or temporary structure. Personnel from multiple branches of the U.S. military, including Army and Marine Corps, are present alongside what appear to be civilian dignitaries in traditional Middle Eastern dress. The ceremony involves the presentation of colors and formal saluting, suggesting a change of command or transfer of authority event.

    Marine Maj. Gen. R. T. Tryon, commanding general of Multi-National Force - West, salutes during a transfer of authority ceremony Sept. 26, 2009, at Camp Ramadi, Iraq. The ceremony marks the end of nearly six years of a Marine Ground Combat Element presence in Al Anbar province and the step-off point for the Army's first fully-augmented advise-and-assist brigade assigned the mission of security-force assistance.
