Children from Weno Island, in Chuuk Lagoon, wave at a passing MH-60S Sea Hawk helicotper from the Military Sealift Command hospital ship USNS Mercy from atop the ruins of a historic Japanese lighthouse, destroyed during the U.S. air raid "Operation Hailstone" in 1944. Mercy will operate in the Federated States of Micronesia to perform humanitarian civic assistance missions in an effort to build the relationship between FSM and the United States. Pacific Partnership is a four-month humanitarian mission to Southeast Asia intended to build collaborative relationships by providing engineering, civic, medical and dental assistance to the region.
