Pathways A Division Commander's Observations in the Pacific

In the end, the presence of the Army in theater matters. It matters to our partners, allies, and adversaries alike. It is a telling and strong message when we take our most-ready forces-who are certified at combat training centers and postured by training at home station-and then invest that readiness into the region to increase both our partners and our proficiency. This investment of readiness provides purpose for our soldiers and leaders; you can see it in their eyes and their actions on the ground. Said another way, these operational deployments are being viewed at every level and by every soldier I engage with as a mission with a purpose.
