Republic of Palau President Tommy Remengesau Jr., Palau Charge D'Affiares Mark Bezner, and USS Peleliu (LHA 5) commanding officer Capt. Ed Rhoades, pause in reverence, June 13 to remember the lives lost on the island during the Battle of Peleliu. A contingent of Sailors and Marines recently flew out to the island for a ceremony at the war memorial. Peleliu is deployed from her San Diego homeport in support of Pacific Partnership, a four-month humanitarian-assistance mission to Southeast Asia and Oceania.
