The form of military parade at sea
Usually, the military parade at sea is divided into military parade and decisive parade. When holding a military parade, all the ships under review have fixed berths and are neatly arranged. The review ship is equipped with domestic leaders and naval generals, as well as special guests from other countries to review the lined warships in turn. Determinant, also known as terminal proofreading, is read in from the terminal reviewing platform by the warship formation in a certain order. In 2008, the South Korean Navy's international ship-watching style was that South Korean naval vessels first held a grand military parade at Yunshuiwan outside Busan Port, and then held a review ceremony. At that time, South Korean President Lee Myung-bak and his wife boarded the guided missile destroyer "King Sejong" in Han Haijun and began to inspect the naval vessels of various countries at a distance of 0/50 yards from the international fleet/KLOC. On the review ship, there are also heads of naval delegations from other 33 countries. ? Like the entrance ceremony of the Olympic Games, the arrangement of warships in various countries also follows certain international practices, but it is not limited to one rule. In more cases, it is still sorted by the initials of the country. In the military parade held in Busan, South Korea, it was the United States "George? In the middle is the "Washington" aircraft carrier, and on both sides are 10 ships of various countries, all arranged according to the English initials of country names.
Generally speaking, the ships under review have fixed berths and are arranged neatly. The review ship will carry its own leaders and naval generals, as well as invited naval generals from other countries, to review the lined warships in turn. Many countries often conduct naval officer exchanges, academic discussions, high-level security dialogues and other activities when conducting international fleet inspection activities. This kind of military parade with multinational navies will show their equipment level and soldiers' quality, which is a kind of "friendly match".
Major General Zhang Deshun, deputy to the National People's Congress and deputy chief of staff of China Navy, said that the Navy will hold a celebration with the theme of "Harmonious Ocean", the most important content of which is to invite colleagues from all countries to China. Dozens of ships from dozens of countries will take part in the celebration and participate in the maritime review led by the China Navy.
Regarding what form the celebration will take, Zhang Deshun said that "it is mainly a military parade at sea and a review at the dock, because we think this way is not only traditional, but also the best way to show and inspire the navy and the world spirit." He added that in addition to the military parade at sea, there will be rich celebrations, including a theme forum hosted by the China Navy, cultural exchanges with naval characteristics, mutual visits and friendship between naval officers and soldiers of various countries, sailors' dances, deck receptions and so on.
