    MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay -- Adm. Kurt Tidd, commander of U.S. Southern Command, and Gen. Nelson Pintos, Chief of the Uruguayan Joint Staff, salute during a formal wreath laying ceremony Aug. 17 at the Plaza Independencia monument to Gen. Jose G. Artigas, the 19th-century leader of Uruguay’s independence. Uruguay and the U.S. co-hosted military leaders from eight South American nations and Canada who visited Montevideo Aug. 17-18 for the VI annual South America Defense Conference. The leaders examined the changing role of the military in the region, and participated in briefings, panels, discussions and meetings on global peacekeeping operations, transregional threat networks, and the integration of women in military service.
