U.S. Marine Corps Chief Warrant Officer 2 Akeel Austin, from Maryland, Communication Strategy and Operations visual information officer, 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing, manages a livestream during the Marine Attack Squadron (VMA) 223 Harrier “Sundown” ceremony at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, June 3, 2026. The “sundown” of the AV-8B Harrier II, an iconic aircraft that has supported joint and Marine Corps operations for over 40 years, also represents the dawn of a new era; it paves the way for 2nd MAW’s full transition to the F-35B and C Lightning II. VMA-223 is the U.S. Marine Corps' last operational Harrier squadron. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Staff Sgt. Maximiliano Rosas)
