    Three naval officers in white dress uniforms are cutting a ceremonial cake at what appears to be a Change of Command ceremony for CTF-72 (Commander, Task Force 72). Two officers appear to be from the U.S. Navy and one from a foreign navy, likely Japanese, based on uniform distinctions. The event is taking place in what appears to be a hangar bay decorated with red, white, and blue bunting.
