    A formal U.S. Navy change of command or commissioning ceremony is taking place aboard USS Makin Island (LHD 8). Three naval officers in white dress uniforms are present, with one speaking at a podium bearing the ship's official seal. Two officers are seated in blue chairs on a raised platform while the third addresses an audience.
    A large formation of U.S. Navy sailors dressed in white dress uniforms (Service Dress White) are standing with their heads bowed in what appears to be a moment of silence or prayer during a formal ceremony. The sailors are arranged in tight, organized rows viewed from an elevated angle. The uniformity of dress and bowed heads suggests a solemn commemorative or memorial event.
