Col. Kyle Benwitz, left, 515th Air Mobility Operations Wing commander, hands Col. Christopher Kiser, former 515th Air Mobility Operations Group commander, a Legion of Merit award during a change of command ceremony at Yokota Air Base, Japan, June 30, 2023. Col. Trigg Randall assumed command of the 515th AMOG from Kiser. The change of command ceremony is a tradition dating back to the Roman era, where military leaders would pass batons, colors, standards, or ensigns that symbolized the passing of command to subordinates in attendance, and ensured unit members were never without official leadership or a continuation of trust.
