PHILIPPINE SEA (Oct. 29, 2020) Naval Air Crewman (Helicopter) 2nd Class Ryan Corrales, from San Diego, assigned to Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron (HSM) 51, embarked aboard the Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser USS Shiloh (CG 67), observes as Japanese sailors secure an MH-60R Sea Hawk helicopter during cross-deck operations on the flight deck of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force Akizuki-class destroyer JS Fuyuzuki (DD 118) during Keen Sword 21. Keen Sword is an example of the strength of the U.S.-Japan Alliance, the foundation of peace and security in the Indo-Pacific region for more than 60 years. The relationships built and maintained during these events are critical to our shared capability to respond to contingencies at a moment’s notice.
