David Perkins, 374th Maintenance Squadron outgoing commander during the 374th MXS change of command ceremony, at Yokota Air Base, Japan, June 14, 2024. The change of command ceremony is a tradition dating back to the Roman era, where military leaders would pass a baton, colors, standards, or ensigns symbolizing the passing of command to subordinates in attendance, ensuring unit members were never without official leadership or a continuation of trust.
