    Kimberly Kancir, a Project Hope nurse from Great Falls, Montana, says goodbye to patients on the hospital ship USNS Mercy (T-AH 19) during Pacific Partnership 2015. A Navy search and rescue team attached to Mercy rescued these individuals after they had been reported missing at sea on June 27. Mercy is in Papua New Guinea for its second 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 project. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Araceli Alarcon/RELEASED)
