 Good afternoon. I'm Commander Merino Tell from the Naval Operational Support Center Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, returning from four-month deployment overseas aboard the USNS Mercy in which we participated with Pacific Partnership where we provided care for 49,000 patients in four countries. We were able to build and establish relationships. We were able to work with partner nations as well as host nation and very excited and being back, returning back to Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, where I belong. Aloha and mahalam. Aloha, my name is Kim Thistle. This is my daughter Kasha and son Charlie. We're welcoming back my husband, Chief Musician Nate Thistle. He's been on deployment on the USNS Mercy and a four-month deployment supporting the Pacific Partnership. And we feel amazing to have him home and we're so proud of him to support the Pacific Partnership and just having to be a family again.
