abe's part, to keep mr. trump focused on japanese interests. north korea recently fired a series of short-range missiles that pose a threat to japan, another sign talks to denuclearize pyongyang are falling short. but it's another nuclear threat the president is currently focused on-- iran. on friday, the pentagon announced it is sending an additional 900 troops to the middle east to beef up defenses. the u.s. already sent b-52 bombers and an aircraft carrier to the region, after it says iran launched recent attacks. >> i don't think iran wants to fight, and i certainly don't think they want to fight with us. >> reporter: a senior administration official says even though this trip includes many ceremonial events, president trump and prime minister abe will have "substantive things to announce." the two leaders are planning to hold a joint press conference next week. weijia jiang, cbs news, tokyo. >>ver:memorial

>> grit. >> reporter: these soon-to-be graduates have different words to describe their experience at the united states military academy at west point. but when asked about the importance of diversity, they all believe it's the key to success. first captain david bindon: >> we don't want everybody in the army to look like me. >> reporter: why not? >> for me, working with people who don't look like me brings different perspectives to my approach to problems. and that helps me solve problems better. >> reporter: this year, 34 african american women will graduate from west point. that's the most in the academy's history. 23-year-old gabrielle alford ioe oi to g be going out and having to solve complex problems. and so, that's going to take creative solutions that somebody from a different background may not have the right answer, but somebody else who went through a similar situation because of where they come from, did, and they have a correct answer. and so it really, like, helps if you can los ou, whcomes om the same background as you. >> reporter: marina camacho

ck wrom the class of 2016 posed with their fists in the air, some students allegedly posted racist messages about the photo on social media. critics claimed the photo was a political statement. what did you all make of that, and what did it represent to you as a soon-to-be west point graduate? >> i thought that the photo was about pride and about unity, and the fist was a symbol of strength. and i thought it was extremely unfortunate that people took it out of context. and that was the first thing that kind of changed my perception about west point for the worse. >> reporter: so that was a difficult time for you? >> it was eye-opening. we talk a lot about character, we talk a lot about diversity and the importanceit people can give the textbook answer about why diversity's important, about why women are included and women should-- are equal. but then you go online and you see, that's not really how everybody feels. >> reporter: for the young black girl that's watching at home and

still wondering if she's good enough, if she can succeed at a place like west point, what would you say to her? i would say that she absolutely can succeed. i was fortunate enough to have 33 other african-american women going through the same experience as me. whether it is your sexual orientation, your race, your gender, we are in a place today where you always find somebody to help you, empathize with you and pull you through. any african-american female watching this right now at home absolutely has what it takes, if this is what she wants to do. >> oliver: that was jericka duncan reporting. up next, the true story behind "the americans." inside the upgraded international spy museum.

not for everyone. errol barnett, cbs news, washington. >> oliver: still ahead, one-of- a-kind dolls, for one-of-a-kind kids. even though i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib not caused by a heart valve problem. so if there's a better treatment than warfarin... i want that too. eliquis. eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk better than warfarin. plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. eliquis is fda-approved and has both. what's next? reeling in a nice one. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden sign of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines.
