Senior Chief Michael Vira renders a hand salute during the official ceremony at the town hall building. Poland gained its independence in 1918, after 123 years of partitions by Austria-Hungary, Germany, and Russia. Sailors marched in the pass and review parade and the command leadership laid a wreath at the statue at the town square with their Polish military counterparts from the Force Protection Battalion. Participation in community relations events are an important aspect of being stationed in Poland and demonstrates a continued effort to build strong partnerships with local officials and citizens in the surrounding regions.
