My second oldest son served with the USN from 1998 until 2007;



Served aboard USS Paul F Foster(DD 964) from March 2000 to March 2003.





At sea with USS Paul F. Foster (DD 964) Oct. 29, 2002 -- The destroyer USS Paul F. Foster turns away after an attempt to replenish fuel from the Military Sealift Command ship (MSC) USNS Rappahannock (T-AO 204). The seas were too high and conditions too rough to safely execute a scheduled replenishment at sea (RAS). Later in the day, calmer seas allowed the two ships to connect and complete their mission.

He also served aboard USS Valley Forge (CG 50) From April 2003 until April 2004.

ROKN & RAN:

Republic Of Korea Submarine Lee Sun-Sin sails in formation with HMAS Sheean for the commencement of the sea phase during Exercise Pacific Reach 2019.
A major international submarine search and rescue exercise involving units from Australia, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Malaysia, Singapore and the United States was recently held off the coast of Western Australia.

Perspective is a bit misleading in this photo, Sheean is almost three times larger than the Lee Sun-Sin (1200 tons vs 3400). It really shows if you see both of them alongside.
