Jarrod Allen, from California, the off-going commanding officer of VMFA(AW)-224, and Lt. Col. John P. Stuart, from Virginia, the oncoming commanding officer of Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMFA) 224, during a squadron redesignation and change of command ceremony at Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, South Carolina, June 26, 2025.
