Sailors aboard the guided-missile destroyer USS Hopper conduct main space fire training while waiting to participate in the MIDPAC Surface Combatant Group sail. The group sail supports the Pacific Fleet's new MIDPAC Surface Combatant Operational Employment program, which calls for nine of the 11 Hawaii-based surface combatants to focus on the Western Pacific by conducting intermediate/advanced training and regular deployments in the Western Pacific. The mid-Pacific Surface Combatant Employment is designed to improve the U.S. Pacific Fleet's war-fighting readiness and operational effectiveness of the ships involved.
