Commander, U.S. Pacific Fleet Adm. Harry B. Harris, Jr., meets Naval Mobile Construction Battalion (NMCB) 3's Executive Officer Lt. Cmdr. Susanne Wienrich following an all hands call at Camp Shields, the Seabees deployed base in Okinawa, Japan. During the call, Harris discussed the current build up of U.S. forces in the Pacific, noting Seabees as a critical piece of naval power in the region. NMCB 3 is a vital component of the U.S. Maritime Strategy, providing details deployed to Okinawa, Atsugi and Yokosuka, Japan; Chinhae, Republic of Korea; China Lake and San Clemente Island, Calif; Timor-Leste, Tonga, Cambodia and the Republic of the Philippines.
Each operate independently and are capable of providing disaster preparation and recovery support, humanitarian assistance, and combat operations support, while the U.S. rebalances forces in the Pacific. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class Chris Fahey/RELEASED).
