Gen. Lori J. Robinson, Pacific Air Forces commander, hosted Air Chiefs from Australia, Cambodia, Mongolia, Nepal, Bangladesh, Japan and the Philippines for the Pacific Air Chiefs Symposium here Sept. 11-12, before their departure to Washington, D.C., for the Air Force Association Annual Air and Space Conference and Technology Exhibition. The symposium helped further the Air Force's partnership with the countries by showcasing PACAF's use of airpower in humanitarian assistance and disaster relief operations and providing a forum for the Air Chiefs to discuss training standardization and improve interoperability. While in Hawaii, the air chiefs also attended the 68th Annual Air Force Birthday Ball as Robinson's special guests.
