A Japanese ship conducting formation steaming in the Bering Sea with crews from the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Bertholf (WMSL 750), June 3, 2023. The U.S. Coast Guard has a long-standing relationship of interoperability with Japan through operations like North Pacific Guard and training exercises, leading to a continued free and open Pacific. Engagement with the Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force demonstrates unity and strengthens rule-based order in the North Pacific. - U.S. Coast Guard photo by Lt. Cmdr. Scott McCann
