U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Maj. James Robertson, the former Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point Sergeant Major, passes a noncommissioned officer sword to Col. Brendan Burks, Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point commanding officer, during a relief and appointment ceremony on MCAS Cherry Point, North Carolina, May 23, 2023. The historic post and relief ceremony is a time-honored tradition within the U.S. Marine Corps. The ceremony serves as the official changeover between Sergeants Major, honoring the outgoing SgtMaj's contributions during his tenure, while offering the opportunity for the oncoming SgtMaj to introduce himself to the Marines now under his charge.
