154 reads Task Force Oceania is a new Army task force consisting of soldiers from all components of the United Sates (U.S.) Army. This includes active-duty, Army Reserve and the National Guard. The mission of the task force is to provide continuous support in the Pacific Island countries, assist U.S. embassies as needed, and reinforce lasting and meaningful relationships in the region. Task Force Oceania’s Pacific Augmentation Team (PAT) Papua New Guinea (PNG) represents the agility of U.S. Army organisations to achieve mission success regardless of circumstances. PAT PNG consists of two soldiers, officer-in-charge, Captain (Capt.) Christopher Meza and cultural liaison officer, Corporal (Cpl) Louie Kaman. Over the course of their year-long mobilisation, they have set the precedent for future operations.
