Jacqueline Simmons, center, a general surgeon assigned to Pacific Friendship 2026 (PF26), speaks to Pacific Partnership 2026 (PP26) medical personnel in a trauma bay during a PF26-led mass casualty (MASCAL) drill aboard U.S. Army Runnymede-class landing craft utility ship USAV Paulus Hook (LCU 2033) at Hon La Port in Quang Tri, Vietnam, July 2, 2026. The MASCAL, supported by PP26 and partner nation personnel, simulated a U.S.-Vietnam response to a Category 5 typhoon. Now in its 22nd iteration, the Pacific Partnership series is the largest annual multinational humanitarian assistance and disaster management preparedness mission conducted in the Indo-Pacific. Pacific Partnership works collaboratively with host and partner nations to enhance regional interoperability and disaster response capabilities, increase security and stability in the region, and foster new and enduring friendships in the Indo-Pacific.
