    A formal U.S. Marine Corps military ceremony is taking place on an airfield tarmac, with personnel in formation performing an interval dress alignment (arms extended to sides). Multiple color guard members hold various flags, and the formation is staged in front of a MV-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft marked with 'MARINES' and unit designation 'VMM-16X'.
