    A military change of command ceremony is taking place indoors, with two uniformed officers exchanging a unit guidon (flag on a staff). All three visible personnel are wearing dark face masks, suggesting this occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic period. A blue unit flag with gold lettering/insignia is visible, along with what appears to be an American flag in the background.
