 The U.S. Navy's four-deployed aircraft carrier, USS George Washington, hosted at Tsugi area of government officials and business leaders for an at-sea visit. I enjoy too much, and I'm so amazed to see around the aircraft carrier, and many people, more than 5,000 people, are working very hard for both countries as Japan and the United States. The 16 guests received a first-hand look at an operational carrier through visits to the navigation bridge, flight deck control, air operations, combat direction center, and flight deck. There are closest allies, and they work at all levels with the United States Navy at the governmental level as well as the defense bureau level, the pre-fracture level, and we even have the city mayor here today from Zama City actually. And so it's that teamwork that enables the ship to get underway. Lots of master labor contract workers, Japanese citizens that work to get the ship, enable it to go, and then it's the support out in town, and the senior leaders that are with us here today are responsible for all of that. Distinguished visitor embarks provide an opportunity to promote partnerships with key U.S. allies in the Indo-Asia Pacific region. For USS George Washington, I'm Petty Officer Brian Abel.
