U.S. Marine Master Gunnery Sgt. Shaun Wahl, left, takes the first bite of the birthday cake as the oldest Marine present before passing it to Lance Cpl. Eric Ventura, the youngest Marine present, at the 4th Marine Regiment’s 249th Birthday Ball Ceremony on Camp Hansen, Okinawa, Japan, Dec. 5, 2024. The cake-cutting ceremony signifies the passing of tradition from one generation to the next, honoring the men and women who have served since 1775. Wahl, a native of South Carolina and an operations chief, and Ventura, a native of Colorado and an engineer equipment operator, are both with 4th Marine Regiment, 3d Marine Division.
