U.S. Navy Cmdr. Rebecca Conti-Vock, commanding officer of Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Benfold (DDG 65), greets Republic of Korea Navy officers aboard the ship during a scheduled port visit to Busan, Republic of Korea, Sept. 1, 2026.
Leader engagements during port calls strengthen bilateral cooperation and reinforce the enduring maritime partnership between the U.S. and the Republic of Korea. Benfold is forward-deployed and assigned to Destroyer Squadron (DESRON) 15, the Navy’s largest DESRON and U.S. 7th Fleet’s principal surface force. U.S. 7th Fleet, the Navy’s largest forward-deployed numbered fleet, routinely interacts and operates with allies and partners in preserving a free and open Indo-Pacific.
