U.S. Coast Guardsmen assigned to the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Waesche (WMSL-751) and members of the Korea Coast Guard pose for a photo during a sports day in Pohang, Republic of Korea, June 10, 2024. United States and Korea Coast Guardsmen came together to participate in a friendly competition of jokgu to build camaraderie between the servicemembers. Waesche is the second U.S. Coast Guard National Security Cutter deployed to the Indo-Pacific in 2024. Coast Guard cutters routinely deploy to the region to engage with partner nations to ensure a free and open Indo-Pacific. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Elijah Murphy)
