KITTERY, Maine (Sept. 5, 2024) – Portsmouth Naval Shipyard (PNSY) Shipyard Commander Capt. Michael Oberdorf, right, bids farewell to Ambassador Shigeo Yamada, Japanese Ambassador to the United States, following a scheduled visit to the shipyard marking the Sept. 5, 2024, anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Portsmouth. The shipyard commemorated the signing with an extended sounding of the shipyard whistle at 3:47 p.m. The treaty stands as one of history's significant achievements in peace negotiations, formally ending the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905. Negotiations were held from Aug. 6 to Aug. 30, 1905, at the shipyard, with the treaty being signed in Building 86 on Sept. 5, 1905. Today, on the anniversary of the treaty's signing, the shipyard welcomed U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen, and Ambassador Yamada, for a tour of the Peace Treaty Room.
