353 SOW conducts Change of Command Ceremony

U.S. Air Force Col. Shawn Young, outgoing 353rd Special Operations Wing commander, right, salutes Lt. Gen. Michael Conley, Air Force Special Operations Command commander, before relinquishing the organizational flag during a change of command ceremony at Kadena Air Base, Japan, June 18, 2025. Exchanging the unit's colors is a tradition where the outgoing commander symbolically relinquishes responsibility and authority by passing the colors to the incoming commander, thus beginning a new dawn of leadership for the incoming commander and the wing.
