    Two military naval vessels are sailing in formation across open blue ocean waters. The ships consist of what appears to be a destroyer-class warship on the left and a larger flat-deck vessel (likely a helicopter destroyer or light carrier) on the right. Both vessels are underway, leaving visible wakes in calm sea conditions under a partly cloudy sky.

    170527-N-BV658-0641 SOUTH CHINA SEA (May 27, 2017) The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Dewey (DDG 105) transits the South China Sea with the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force ship JS Izumo (DDH 183). Dewey is part of the Sterett-Dewey Surface Action Group and is the third deploying group operating under the command and control construct called 3rd Fleet Forward. U.S. 3rd Fleet operating forward offers additional options to the Pacific Fleet commander by leveraging the capabilities of 3rd and 7th Fleets.
