Capt. Gordon Loebl, commander, Coast Guard Sector New York, awards Master Chief Jason Willey the Coast Guard Commendation Medal during a change of command ceremony in Bayonne, N.J., June 7, 2013. The change of command ceremony conveys to the officers, enlisted members, civilian employees and auxiliary members of the Coast Guard that although the authority of command is relinquished by a leader and is assumed by another, it is still maintained without interruption.
