U.S. Army Soldiers assigned to the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research–Armed Forces Research Institute of Medical Science (WRAIR-AFRIMS), U.S. Navy Sailors participating in Pacific Partnership 2026, Vietnamese public health professionals, and local community members walk to a mosquito surveillance site during a combined Pacific Friendship-Pacific Partnership vector disease trapping demonstration in Quang Tri, Vietnam, June 25, 2026. The subject matter expert exchange, conducted by U.S. Army scientists from WRAIR-AFRIMS, PP26 Sailors, and civilians from the Quang Tri Center for Disease Control and Prevention, strengthened Vietnamese disease monitoring capabilities and regional public health preparedness. Pacific Friendship is an annual U.S. Army Pacific-led bilateral engagement focusing on the U.S.-Vietnamese People’s Army’s humanitarian assistance and disaster relief, as well as various medical and engineering activities to advance the mutual interest of a free and open Indo-Pacific.
