KIRIBATI (June 15, 2015) – Sgt. Dustin Hutterer demonstrates how to apply a tourniquet at the Maritime Training Center in the Independent Republic of Kiribati June 15. The course was presented by a Pacific Partnership medical team attached to the joint high speed vessel USNS Millinocket (JHSV 3) and gave the students a basic understanding of how to treat most major injuries. Millinocket is serving as the secondary platform for Pacific Partnership, led by an expeditionary command element from the Navy’s 30th Naval Construction Regiment (30 NCR) from Port Hueneme, Calif. Now in its 10th iteration, Pacific Partnership is the largest annual multilateral humanitarian assistance and disaster relief preparedness mission conducted in the Indo-Asia Pacific region. While training for crisis conditions, Pacific Partnership, missions have provided medical care to approximately 270,000 patients and veterinary service to more than 38,000 animals. Additionally, Pacific Partnership has provided critical infrastructure development to host nations through the completion of more than 180 engineering products.
