    A formal military ceremony is taking place in which a civilian in a dark suit and a uniformed military officer in dress blues are jointly holding a guidon (unit flag) on a wooden staff. A third individual in camouflage uniform stands in the background holding additional flags. This appears to be a change of command or activation ceremony based on the guidon-passing tradition.

    Dr. Gurpartap Sandhoo, U.S. Space Force Portfolio Acquisition Executive for Missile Warning and Tracking, presents the System Delta 84 guidon to Space Force Col. Kenneth J. Smith, incoming System Delta 84 commander, during a change of command ceremony at Los Angeles Air Force Base in El Segundo, California, Sept. 11, 2026. The transfer of the guidon symbolizes Smith’s formal assumption of command. System Delta 84 supports the Portfolio Acquisition Office for Portfolio Acquisition Executive for Missile Warning and Tracking as well as Space Systems Command's Space Sensing program office responsible for delivering space-based missile warning, tracking, and defense; space-based environmental monitoring; and other strategic and tactical sensing capabilities that directly enable the warfighter to deter, defend, and win.
