Two ships. Two states. Two extraordinary legacies of service.
What a powerful sight—the future USS Ted Stevens (DDG 128) transiting alongside USS Daniel Inouye (DDG 118).
There is special meaning behind this image. Senators Ted Stevens of Alaska and Daniel K. Inouye of Hawai‘i were decorated World War II veterans, longtime Senate colleagues, and close friends who referred to one another as brothers. They worked together for decades in service to our nation and shared a deep commitment to national defense and the Pacific.
Now, ships bearing their names sail together—carrying forward their legacies of service, friendship, and commitment to our nation and the Indo-Pacific. We at the Daniel K. Inouye Asia Pacific Center for Security Studies and the Ted Stevens Arctic Center are proud Department of War Institutions named after these two servant leaders.
What a fitting tribute to two warriors – two friends—and two great Americans.

Why does French nuclear strategy matter to the Indo-Pacific? 🇫🇷🌏
France is a Pacific nation with territories, citizens, and permanent military forces in the region. Changes in its strategic posture directly impact stability across the Pacific theater.
In a brand-new Security Nexus perspective, DKI APCSS Alumnus Capt. Jean-Marc Molina—French liaison officer to USPACOM, U.S. Pacific Fleet, and the U.S. Coast Guard—dives deep into President Emmanuel Macron’s historic March 2026 address on French nuclear deterrence.
Molina unpacks critical defense shifts, including:
• The newly proposed concept of "forward deterrence."
• How France plans to modernize its strategic forces.
• The delicate balance of strengthening European security while keeping nuclear decision-making strictly independent.
Check out the full, unclassified breakdown from one of our own distinguished alumni to see how European strategic decisions ripple into the Pacific. 👇

What makes deterrence credible on the Korean Peninsula—and what does it take to preserve a peace that has endured for more than seven decades?

In the latest episode of Dialogue, Dean James Minnich joins GEN Xavier Brunson, Commander of UNC/CFC/USFK, and LTGEN Scott Winter, Deputy Commander of UNC, for a conversation about Korea’s place at the center of Indo-Pacific security.
They discuss the evolving security environment, Brunson’s “Three Kings of Deterrence”—posture, protection, and sustainment—and how the ROK-U.S. Alliance and multinational partnerships strengthen deterrence and help preserve peace. U.S. Forces Korea AFN Korea United Nations Command
