A cake ceremony is also an integral part of the Birthday Ball and includes a tradition of presenting the first piece of cake to the oldest Marine in attendance and then passed to the youngest Marine, representing the passing of tradition from one generation to another. This year, MARFORK Commander MajGen Hedelund cut the cake, and the eldest attending Marine, MARFORK SgtMaj, SgtMaj Moran, passed his cake to the youngest attending Marine, LCpl Colin Read, who took the first bite.
