U.S. Navy Capt. John L. Bryant and Petty Officer 2nd Class Toni N. Burton, the oldest and youngest sailors currently serving with Joint Task Force Civil Support, cut a cake as part of a ceremony commemorating the Navys 235th birthday Oct. 15, 2010. JTF-CS has 34 Sailors, of which 13 gave a presentation of the Navys current war fighting capabilities, followed by the cake cutting.
