The celebration took place during Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) 2026, the world’s largest international maritime exercise, highlighting the strong partnership among participating nations. Thirty nations, over 30 surface ships, five submarines, 15 national land forces, more than 206 aircraft and 30,000 personnel are participating in RIMPAC in and around the Hawaiian Islands, June 24 to July 31.
