 The exercise has brought in countries from all sides of the Pacific and as far away as Europe. This year, the German Navy has two ships participating for the first time. Gero, whose country sits on South America's Pacific coastline, said countries all across the world have a stake in what happens in the Pacific. This is a very good exercise. Working together occasionally, like this, makes response to some kind of an emergency much easier. Thank you for joining me for A Minute with the Colonel.
