PACIFIC OCEAN (Sept. 13, 2023) – The Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer USS Michael Murphy (DDG 112), middle, sails alongside the Republic of Korea Navy Cheonji-class fast combat support ship ROKS Hwacheon (AOE-59), front, and the helicopter training ship ROKS Hansando (ATH-81) in the Pacific Ocean, Sept. 13. An integral part of U.S. Pacific Fleet, U.S. 3rd Fleet operates naval forces in the Indo-Pacific and provides the realistic, relevant training necessary to execute the U.S. Navy’s role across the full spectrum of military operations – from combat operations to humanitarian assistance and disaster relief. U.S. 3rd Fleet works together with our allies and partners to advance freedom of navigation, the rule of law, and other principles that underpin security for the Indo-Pacific region.
