 I'm Vice Admiral Gene Black, Commander of the Sixth Fleet and Striking and Support Forces NATO. This is my first experience at the International Sea Power Symposium and what a wonderful experience it's been here in Newport with heads of Navy that that because of the nature of my fleet which ranges from the North Pole to the South Pole in Africa and Europe, I got to meet so many heads of Navy that I haven't been able to meet otherwise through the COVID restrictions and I've been amazed at how much common ground or water we have. Absolutely remarkable experience, very deep thoughtful discussions and presentations and what a tremendous forum and history to be at the U.S. Naval War College where so many of these heads of Navy have studied. What a great experience and I hope I get to do it again sometime.
