    U.S. Marine Corps Lt. Col. Frank A. Machrinak, left, commanding officer of Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMFA) 232, Marine Aircraft Group (MAG) 11, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing (MAW), returns a salute before exchanging the squadrons noncommissioned officer sword with the off going sergeant major of VMFA-232, Sgt. Maj. Daniel V. Velis Jr., center, during a relief and appointment ceremony on Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, Calif., Jan. 12, 2022. The sergeant major as the senior enlisted leader and advisor is the keeper of traditions for his/her unit. Today’s emblematic passing of the sword of office signifies the transfer of this sacred trust from one sergeant major to another. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Rachaelanne Woodward)
