    ROXAS CITY, Philippines (July 31, 2015) A maritime cadet from Colegia De La Purisima Concepcion peers through long-range binoculars while on the bridge wing of the hospital ship USNS Mercy (T-AH 19) as part of a tour during Pacific Partnership 2015. The cadets received briefings about the ship's forecastle, bridge and engine rooms. 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. 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)
