Our visit is aimed at building friendship and goodwill with the people of the Republic of Korea and connecting with our counterparts to strengthen our mutual commitment to regional BMD [ballistic missile defense] security.
Over the course of the next few days, Shiloh Sailors will not only enjoy the sites and culture that Busan has to offer, but will also participate in sporting events, ceremonies, and community relation events during their visit.
