FILE - In this Feb. 14, 2014 file photo, U.S. Marines take their position near an amphibious assault vehicle after landing on Hat Yao beach in Chonburi province, Thailand, during a military exercise Cobra Gold in which about 8,000 military personnel from U.S., Thailand, Indonesia, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, and Malaysia take part. U.S. military commander in the Pacific Adm. Harry Harris will be the highest-ranking American officer to attend the Cobra Gold military exercises in Thailand since a coup there three years ago. The U.S. had scaled down the 10-day drills since the 2014 coup, and Harris’ scheduled appearance at the Feb. 14 opening ceremony is seen as a sign that the U.S.-Thai military ties are on the mend.
