Chief of Naval Operations Admiral John Richardson met with his UK and Japanese counterparts at the Pentagon for the first time. The meeting resulted in the signing of an agreement, affirming their commitment to increase collaboration and cooperation. Each Navy is committed to an open and free maritime system that allows for the flow of commerce and trade on the open seas. The Navy identified a number of actions to improve the quality of pay and personnel services provided to sailors.
