    Carrier Strike Group 5 commander visits JS Izumo

    240606-N-YS525-1008 PHILIPPINE SEA (June 6, 2024) – Rear Adm. Greg Newkirk, commander of the U.S. Navy’s Carrier Strike Group 5, departs the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force’s (JMSDF) first-in-class helicopter destroyer JS Izumo (DDH 183) on June 6, 2024. Newkirk visited the JMSDF ship in advance of their combined force’s participation in Valiant Shield 2024. Carrier Strike Group 5 is forward-deployed to Yokosuka, Japan, and is led by the flagship Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76). Exercises such as Valiant Shield allow the Indo-Pacific Command Joint Forces the opportunity to integrate forces from all branches of service and with our allies to conduct precise, lethal, and overwhelming multi-axis, multi-domain effects that demonstrate the strength and versatility of the Joint Force and our commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific.
