U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Kira Coffey, 36th Airlift Squadron outgoing commander, gives her final salute to members of the 36th AS at a change of command ceremony at Yokota Air Base, Japan, May 29, 2024. 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.
