PACIFIC OCEAN (June 24, 2015) Master at Arms 3rd Class Ashley Byrd, a casualty actor from Albuquerque, N.M., lies on an examination table for mass-casualty training on board the hospital ship USNS Mercy (T-AH 19) during Pacific Partnership 2015. Medical personnel trained at various stations, focusing on skills for reception and initial treatment of a mass-casualty scenario. Mercy is currently underway to Papua New Guinea for its second mission stop. Pacific Partnership is in its 10th 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. Critical infrastructure development has been supported in host nations during more than 180 engineering projects. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Peter Reft/RELEASED)
