ARTICLE: Australia, US call on China for war games, JONATHAN PEARLMAN, Sydney Morning Herald, September 3, 2009

Good sign and right instinct on the part of both Australia and our outgoing head of Pacific Command.

There is some worry that the new head of PACOM won't be open to this sort of thing, so some retrenchment may occur before events conspire to bring him up to speed.
