I also made it to the top ten at Miss Washington 2007, but came down with mono during pageant week and was all too happy to be cut before the finals.

But in fact Africom deals only with African territory, and not the seas surrounding it. Those are monitored by U.S. Central Command, also responsible for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
