U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Bertholf (WMSL 750) crew members stow lines and equipment following the cutter’s departure from Hong Kong following a multi-day port call to the city, April 19, 2019. The U.S. Coast Guard has deep and long-standing ties with our partners in the region, and more importantly, the service shares a strong commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific, governed by a rules-based international system that promotes peace, security, prosperity, and sovereignty of all nations.
