KOLONIA, Pohnpei (June 30, 2015) – Maj. Shayna Thompson talks to students about the benefits of joining the military during a question and answer session at College of Micronesia – FSM June 30. Service members attached to the Military Sealift Command joint high speed vessel USNS Millinocket (JHSV 3) went to the college to answer any questions the students had about the military and how it could help them with their education. Millinocket is serving as the secondary platform for Pacific Partnership, led by an expeditionary command element from the Navy’s 30th Naval Construction Regiment (30 NCR) from Port Hueneme, California. Now in its 10th iteration, Pacific Partnership is the largest annual multilateral humanitarian assistance and disaster relief preparedness mission conducted in the Indo-Asia Pacific Region.
