With a salute, Capt. Daniel W. Clark (right) passes his command of Coast Guard Port Security Unit 313 to Cmdr. James R. Hotchkiss (left) during a change of command ceremony held at Naval Station Everett, Sept. 20, 2014. The change of command ceremony is a time-honored ceremonial tradition that formally restates the continuing authority of that command and transfers total responsibility and authority from one individual to another.
