Opportunities Outpace Challenges in the Indo-Pacific

In an era of geopolitical competition and evolving security challenges, the Indo-Pacific region remains a focal point of global strategic importance. From the Indian to the Pacific Ocean, this vast expanse of water dotted with archipelagos and population mega-clusters encompasses 40 diverse nations across 13 time zones. Throughout this critical region, America's First Corps is advancing how it meets enduring and emerging challenges. As America's regional operational headquarters, First Corps manages the daily activities of 40,000 U.S. Army soldiers and regularly campaigns across 21 countries to enhance relationships and build ally and partner capacity, all to support a free and open Indo-Pacific.
