    Three U.S. Army soldiers in MultiCam/OCP uniforms and black berets are cutting a large ceremonial cake decorated with blue and white diagonal stripes and green border frosting.

A table covered with a blue cloth displays various unit-branded merchandise including wooden figurines, ornaments, a framed artwork, and a decorated Christmas tree in the background. Several people, including at least one person in military camouflage uniform, are browsing the items.
