Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The prisoner-of-war table sits on display during the 240th Marine Corps Birthday Ball Nov. 13, 2015, at the Butler Officers Club on Camp Foster Okinawa, Japan. The POW table is displayed at every ball to symbolize those who “Dine with us in spirit only.” A moment of silence is also observed to honor the fallen. The Marine Corps Ball has been a Marine Corps tradition since 1951 and continues to be a time every year where current Marines set aside an evening to honor fallen Marines and toast to the future success of the Corps. The ball ceremony includes a sword detail, the reading of Maj. Gen. John A. Lejeune’s birthday message and an official cake cutting for the oldest and youngest Marines present as well as the guest of honor who receives the first piece before giving a speech to those present. Marine Corps Installations Pacific is the strength behind America's ability to respond quickly to crisis in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region. MCIPAC strengthens power projection with our allies and partners; enables the strategic launch and recovery of military capabilities to save lives and to preserve regional peace, stability and security; and enables operating force readiness to guarantee victory.
