CHON BURI PROVINCE, Thailand (May 18, 2019) U.S. Navy Sailors assigned to Naval Mobile Construction Battalion (NMCB) 4, U.S. Army Soldiers, assigned to 377 Engineer Company, and Royal Thai Armed Forces work together to build a library at the Ban Surasak School project site during Pacific Partnership 2019. Interviews start at 6:10:14 and start off with Builder 3rd Class Kyle Agate, assigned to NMCB-4, and then it is Chief Equipment Operator Ryan Newman, assigned to NMCB-4. The scope of the project includes construction of a library, which is also designed to function as a shelter in the event of a natural disaster. Pacific Partnership, now in its 14th iteration, is the largest annual multinational humanitarian assistance and disaster preparedness mission conducted in the Indo-Pacific. Each year, the mission team works collectively with host and partner nations to enhance regional interoperability and disaster response capabilities, increase stability and security in the region, and foster new and enduring friendships across the Indo-Pacific.
