Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) Fleet Logistics Center Jacksonville (FLCJ) hosted six supply officers from the Republic of Korea (ROK) Navy during a visit to the command, May 16.
The ROK Navy delegation was led by ROK Navy Rear Adm. Sung-bae Park, commander, ROK Naval Logistics Command. The visit promoted partnership and learning between the U.S. and Republic of Korea naval supply communities.

During the visit, Cmdr.

Visits like this one give us an opportunity to share best practices and develop solutions to our shared logistical challenges," said Day. "Our supply operations are made better by learning from our counterparts and sharing our knowledge, so that we simultaneously improve our support and integration for our warfighters."

The ROK delegation received a presentation and tour from Chief Warrant Officer Clive Dixon, Aviation Support Division Officer-in-Charge, highlighting the supply systems configuration, Public-Private Partnership and foreign military sales programs for the P-8A Poseidon and shared knowledge of the phase-out of the P-3C Orion aircraft.
