    A formal U.S. Marine Corps military ceremony is taking place on a parade ground, likely at a base in Hawaii based on the distinctive Norfolk Island pine trees and tropical vegetation. A color guard of four Marines stands in the foreground holding the U.S. national flag and the red Marine Corps flag. Formations of Marines in camouflage utilities stand at attention or saluting on both sides of the parade field.

    Marine Corps Base Hawaii

    The Marine Corps Base Hawaii battle colors are presented during a change of command ceremony at the base flagpole Thursday. Col. Brian P. Annichiarico assumed command of the base from Lt. Col. Michael P. Antonio. Antonio will resume his previous position as the base director of operations and training after serving as the interim base commanding officer for a month. “It’s truly humbling to be here,” Annichiarico said. “You never get a second chance at a first good impression, and the impression I have of the team here is unbelievable.” Annichiarico has held numerous staff positions and deployed with the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit in support of Operation Determined Falcon in Kosovo in 1998. He commanded Marine Attack Squadron 231 “Ace of Spades” while deployed to Al Asad Air Base, Al Anbar Province, Iraq, in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, as well.
