![Two U.S. Air Force officers in OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniforms are performing a guidon/flag casing or uncasing ceremony, a formal military tradition marking a unit activation or inactivation. The officer on the right, identified by nametape as 'HAMILTON,' is wearing a medal and holding the flagstaff, while the officer on the left, identified as 'BABI[AN/AS],' assists in rolling or unrolling the blue unit guidon. An American flag and what appears to be an Air Force flag are visible in the background.](https://d1ldvf68ux039x.cloudfront.net/thumbs/photos/2606/9753074/75x75_q95.jpg "752nd Operations Support Squadron inactivated, 71st Air Control Squadron activated at Tinker")
