The USNS Seay (T‑AKR‑302), a Bob Hope-class roll-on/roll-off vehicle cargo ship of the United States Navy, docked at the Port of Cagayan de Oro on March 15, 2026. The 290-meter, 62,070-ton vessel is reportedly carrying equipment and supplies for the upcoming Balikatan Exercise. Launched on June 25, 1998, the ship is named after William ‘Billy’ Seay, a U.S. Army sergeant who was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his heroism during the Vietnam War.
