    An Australian soldier prepares to use a Shallow Water Egress Trainer, a device designed to simulate an off shore emergency during the Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) Exercise 2014. Training at the pool introduced participants to breathing compressed air and maneuvering upside down underwater to simulate a water survival situation. Twenty-two nations, 49 ships, 6 submarines, more than 200 aircraft and 25,000 personnel are participating in RIMPAC exercise from June 26 to Aug. 1, in and around the Hawaiian Islands. The world's largest international maritime exercise, RIMPAC provides a unique training opportunity that helps participants foster and sustain the cooperative relationships that are critical to ensuring the safety of sea lanes and security on the world's oceans. RIMPAC 2014 is the 24th exercise in the series that began in 1971. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Sgt. Sarah Dietz/RELEASED)
