U.S. Secretary of Defense (SECDEF) Mark Esper, left, and Republic of Palau President Tommy Remengesau, address the press in Koror, Republic of Palau, during the first-ever SECDEF visit to Palau, Aug. 28, 2020. Esper also visited U.S. Marines and Sailors with Task Force Koa Moana (TF KM) 20, who are conducting engagements in the Republic of Palau in July through September of 2020. Koa Moana, meaning “ocean warrior,” is designed to strengthen and enhance relationships between the U.S. and partner nations/states in the Indo-Pacific region, improve interoperability with local security establishments, and serve as a Humanitarian Assistance Survey Team afloat in support of U.S. Indo-Pacific Command’s strategic and operational objectives. TF KM20 provides a unique opportunity to enhance relationships in the Republic of Palau. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Sgt. Anabel Abreu Rodriguez)
