American military power in the Far East had by then been reduced to a token force that was ill equipped to oppose the Soviet-backed North Korean military. The United States Air Force (USAF), which had been in the process of moving to an all-jet force in the region, responded immediately with what it had in Japan and Okinawa. The biggest problem for the USAF, however, was that its F-80 Shooting Star fighter-bombers lacked the range to hit North Korean targets, and their loiter time over enemy columns already in South Korea was severely restricted. This pointed to the need for the US Navy to bolster American air power in the region by deploying its aircraft carriers to the region.

Under its new Sponsor-A-Service Member program, the Department of Community and Cultural Affairs put 18 visiting sailors from the USS Antietam in touch with a local family who voluntarily hosted them while the ship was in Saipan earlier this month. “I want to thank... everyone on your island paradise for making our visit ...on Saipan the best Port Call I’ve ever had - ever!” said Lt. Cmdr. Timothy White, ship chaplain. “Your kindness and hospitality were like nothing we had ever experienced before.” Mite and other sailors were welcomed into the home of Noel and Rita Chargualaf, the first of Saipan residents to sign up for the program. “Every single man who participated has just raved about the wonderful time they had with the families,” said White. “You truly live in an island paradise and the people on your island are the nicest folks I have ever met.” “For the most, they were just thrilled to be around children and families.

    Another example of a mission ready ship because of a U.S. Navy Port Engineer A Quarter-Century of Naval Partnership: U.S. and Thailand Kick off 25th CARAT Exercise Story Number: NNS190530-07Release Date: 5/30/2019 1:03:00 PM By Petty Officer 1st Class Gregory Johnson, Commander, Logistics Group Western Pacific Public Affairs SATTAHIP, Thailand (NNS) -- The U.S. Navy’s USS Antietam (CG 54), Marine Corps and Coast Guard, and Royal Thai Navy and Marine Corps kicked off the 25th annual Cooperation Afloat Readiness and Training (CARAT) during an opening ceremony at Sattahip Naval Base, May 29. CARAT, the U.S. Navy's oldest and longest-running regional exercise in South and Southeast Asia, strengthens partnerships between regional navies, and enhances maritime security cooperation throughout the Indo-Pacific. The Royal Thai Navy has been a part of the annual CARAT series since the exercise began in 1995. "Thailand is a key partner and an enduring ally," Rear Adm. Joey Tynch, commander, Task Force 73, said. “CARAT represents the good relationship between the Royal Thai Navy and U.S. Navy,” Rear Adm. Paisarn Meesri, commander of Frigate Squadron 2, said. The CARAT exercise series remains a model of cooperation that has evolved in complexity and enables partner navies to refine operations and tactics in response to traditional and non- traditional maritime security challenges. Its continuing relevance for a quarter of a century speaks to the high quality of exercise events and the enduring value of maritime cooperation among allies and partners in South and Southeast Asia.

    South China Sea Intelligence Briefngs Weekly Briefing: October 4th Welcome to the South China Sea Briefing for the week of the 4 October. At The Open Source Briefing, we remain committed to providing the public with ongoing developments around the globe. U.S. Navy Image Courtesy of USNI Fleet Tracker Last week was without a briefing as we were adding to our staff, reworking our format, and reshaping the briefing to give you the best news on the South China Sea. Since we weren’t here last week, the following is an update on the previous week’s goings-on for context and hyperlinked for context. President Rodrigo Duterte invokes the 2016 Hague ruling on their claims in the SCS at the UN on Wednesday the 23rd. ​ ​ Taiwanese Defense Ministry revised its rules of engagement that it reserved the right to act in self-defense if attacked by mainland Chinese forces. The Taiwanese Defense ​ ​ Ministry also announced that, in September, 37 individual incursions by Chinese air force into the Taiwanese ADIZ were registered during the visit of US Undersecretary of ​ State Keith Krach. The Chinese Military conducted anti-mine drills in response to the ​ Taiwanese buildup of forces on September 21st.
