SAN DIEGO (May 23, 2007) -- More than 3,000 Sailors and Marines from
USS Peleliu (LHA 5) depart San Diego to assists in a humanitarian and
civic-action mission to several nations in Southeast Asia and Oceania
called "Pacific Partnership". The deployment is being coordinated with
several nations and, like the recent hospital ship USNS Mercy (T-AH 19)
deployment, will carry out in cooperation with several non-government
relief organizations. U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist
