Cmdr. Alan Ross, a Navy audiologist, from Tulsa, Oklahoma, talks to a newborn during a hearing test at the Labasa Hospital during Pacific Partnership 2015. Navy medical personnel from the hospital ship USNS Mercy (T-AH 19) visited the hospital to exchange ideas and offer medical assistance to their Fijian counterparts. Mercy is currently in Savusavu, Fiji for its first mission port of PP15. Pacific Partnership is in its tenth iteration and is the largest annual multilateral humanitarian assistance and disaster relief preparedness mission conducted in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region. While training for crisis conditions, Pacific Partnership missions to date have provided real world medical care to approximately 270,000 patients and veterinary services to more than 38,000 animals. Additionally, the mission has provided critical infrastructure development to host nations through more than 180 engineering projects.(U.S. Marine Corps photo by Sgt. Valerie Eppler/RELEASED)
