    U.S. Marine Corps Lt. Col. Roger A. Holiday, left, and Lance Cpl. Javari S. Magee, center, with Headquarters and Headquarters Squadron, participate in the 245th Marine Corps birthday cake cutting ceremony at Goettge Memorial Field House on Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, Nov. 13, 2020. Holiday, the oldest Marine present, presented a slice of cake to Magee, the youngest Marine present. The passing of the cake from the oldest to youngest Marine present represents the passing of experience and knowledge of the old Corps to the new Corps, so that they may carry the torch.
