 SecDef Chuck Hagel hosted a conference of Asian leaders in Hawaii. He led the U.S. Association of Southeast Asian Nations, or ASEAN, on a tour of USS Anchorage. They addressed regional issues such as extreme weather events and disaster relief missions in the Pacific. SecDef emphasized the importance of relationships in the Asia Pacific. Today, we, this afternoon, have spent some time here on the USS Anchorage. We spent some time looking at the V-22, but also we focused on our military-to-military relationships and our joint exercises that we continue to strengthen and deepen and widen. And it's not just about military-to-military exercises, there's a purpose. It's security. It's stability. From the Defense Media Activity, I'm Petty Officer Tony Rosa.
