    The 20th Force Support Squadron honor guard stands at attention before a prisoner of war/missing in action (POW/MIA) ceremony at Shaw Air Force Base, South Carolina, Sept. 18, 2020. Congress first officially recognized POW/MIA Recognition Day in 1979, but the family members of those POW/MIAs were honoring their sacrifice years before.

An American flag is visible being carried by the second airman in the formation.
    A U.S. Air Force color guard ceremony is taking place in an indoor venue, likely a conference or auditorium space. Four airmen in dress blue uniforms are presenting colors including the U.S. flag, Air Force flag, and POW/MIA flag. A masked soldier in camouflage uniform observes from the left, while a civilian in a suit stands near a podium in the background.
    Several U.S. Air Force Honor Guard members in dress blue uniforms and white gloves are setting up a formal ceremonial table, likely a POW/MIA Missing Man Table. The table features symbolic elements including a red rose, wine glasses, white plates, and a black napkin with silverware. This appears to be a rehearsal or setup for a formal military dining-in or remembrance ceremony.
    A military service member in MultiCam/OCP camouflage uniform is rendering a salute beside a white floral memorial wreath on a stand. The ceremony appears to be a memorial or remembrance event, indicated by the presence of the POW/MIA flag to the left. The soldier is wearing a black face mask, suggesting this event took place during the COVID-19 pandemic period.
