On June 1, U.S. Navy Fleet Master Chief David Isom, U.S. Indo-Pacific Command Senior Enlisted Leader (CSEL), visited Yokota Air Base, as well as several other bases in the Indo-Pacific region, to get an inside look at their capabilities and crisis response procedures.

As the CSEL, Isom advises the commander on enlisted issues, provides leadership to joint service members throughout the region, promotes enlisted professional development through training and education opportunities, and serves as a mentor for senior enlisted service members within the area of responsibility.
