160522-A-ZZ999-085 NALAIKH, Mongolia (May 22, 2016) - Adm. Harry Harris, Commander of U.S. Pacific Command (PACOM), rides his horse, “Volunteer,” with Haliun Erdenebat, PACOM Program manager, Office of Defense Cooperation, at the Khaan Jims camp. Maj. Gen. Dulamsuren Davaa, Chief of the General Staff of Mongolia, presented Volunteer to Harris as part of a special Mongolian tradition. A native of East Tennessee, Harris named the horse “Volunteer” to honor his home state and Mongolia’s leadership in peacekeeping missions in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region. Harris visited Mongolia during the annual multinational peacekeeping exercise Khaan Quest, which served as this year’s capstone exercise for the U.S. State Department’s Global Peace Operations Initiative program.
