Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force senior officers and the Coast Guard Cutter Bertholf commanding officer and executive officer pose on cutter Bertholf, Dutch Harbor, Unalaska, June 5, 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
