Royal Australian Navy clearance divers Petty Officer 1st Class Benjamin Petersen (left) and Lt. Nicholas Carter receive a safety brief from Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility (PHNSY & IMF) Navy Diver 1st Class Adam Kitzman before executing a familiarization dive at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, April 9, 2024. The Australians are spending two weeks with their American counterparts to learn more about diving operations around submarines. The team is part of AUKUS, a trilateral partnership of Australia, United Kingdom, and the U.S. that seeks to deliver conventionally armed, nuclear-powered attack submarines to Australia to help ensure a peaceful and stable Indo-Pacific. PHNSY & IMF is the largest, most comprehensive fleet repair and maintenance facility between the U.S. West Coast and the Far East and provides a capable, ready and "Fit to Fight" fleet.
