 Hi everybody and greetings from Seoul, South Korea. As a U.S. ambassador to the Republic of Korea and former commander of the amazing Sixth Fleet, I'd like to extend my heartiest congratulations on your 70th anniversary. No exaggeration, I loved Sixth Fleet and living in Naples. It was my best tour as a flag officer. The history, the people I work with, the missions we had were all simply incredible. Now when I got to Naples, my boss was Admiral Lobster Fitzgerald. He told me something that I never forgot. Our C2 lay down was as strange then as it is now. I was a Sixth Fleet commander, but also his deputy at NAVIR and NAVAF. He told me that the deputy jobs were administrative, and what was really important was the Sixth Fleet job. He said to make Sixth Fleet relevant because it mattered and it resonated with the people living in Europe. So, keep it relevant, Lobster said, and we did. Just as Admiral Francketti is doing now and Admiral Fogo before her. Thanks to Admiral Francketti's leadership, Sixth Fleet continues to be a wonderful place to serve with amazing sailors and Marines to safeguard the United States and our allies. So once again, congratulations on your anniversary and I wish you all continued success for many more years to come.
