SOUTH CHINA SEA (Jan. 25, 2026) — U.S. Navy Ensign Thara Venkateswaran reads flag signals aboard Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS John Finn (DDG 113) during a flag hoist drill with Philippine Coast Guard Gabriela Silang-class frigate BRP Gabriela Silang (8301) and Philippine Navy Jose Rizal-class frigate BRP Antonio Luna (FF151) during the Maritime Cooperative Activity (MCA) in the Philippines’ Exclusive Economic Zone, Jan. 25, 2026. The U.S Navy routinely operates with the Armed Forces of the Philippines and partners and allies through MCAs to continually develop, exercise and enhance multi-domain tactical interoperability to uphold peace and security in the region. John Finn is forward-deployed and assigned to Destroyer Squadron (DESRON) 15, the Navy’s largest DESRON and the U.S. 7th Fleet’s principal surface force.
