Pacific Angel 12-4 is a Pacific Air Forces planned event that enhances humanitarian assistance and disaster relief capabilities between the United States and Pacific partners. The U.S. was invited by the Nepal government to provide support by conducting medical, optometry, and civil engineering programs. Operations like Pacific Angel build and sustain relationships with our multinational partners in the Asia-Pacific region. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt. Jeffrey Allen)
