The Japanese Navy has been suppling US ships with fuel and water since 2001. While their help is much appreciated, the US Navy can carry on the mission without Japanese help. It was a helpful contribution and assisted the US greatly though in the beginning of the war when US vessels were tasked to more homeland security types of missions and needed support in the Indian Ocean theater of operations.

I admire and thank the individual sailors. As for Japan, with allies like that, who needs radical Islam.
