 The U.S. Navy's presence in the Pacific extends over 70 years and for the past 22 years they have conducted bilateral cooperation of float readiness and training or carried exercises with their counterparts in the region. That's part of that presence and we all believe that presence matters in terms of security and stability in the region which goes a long way to providing that prosperity that this region is seeing. The USS Stetum is underway for its fourth and final carried exercise during its deployment which gives the destroyer and her crew an opportunity not offered during strike group operations. They get to see so many different cultures and meet so many different people and gain appreciation for not only the strength and capability of other navies but also how great the people in these countries are.
