    Marine Corps Base Quantico

    U.S. Marine Corps Col. Jenny Colegate, the incoming commanding officer of Marine Corps Base Quantico, receives the colors from Col. Michael L. Brooks, the outgoing commanding officer of MCBQ, during a change of command ceremony on MCBQ Virginia, July 2, 2024. The passing of the colors is a tradition that signifies the transferring of responsibilities from the outgoing commanding officer to the oncoming. Brooks relinquished command to Colegate after serving as the commander for almost three years. “I refer to Marine Corps Base Quantico as a village, and I do that on purpose,” Brooks said. “It’s not all about the capabilities, but those [people in Quantico] who involve themselves; they insert themselves in to what needs to be done in support of the village.” (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl.
