Adornado Cawa, 5th Infantry Division MP Company, as part of Balikatan 2012, April 19 at Clark Air Base, Philippines. Bilateral training helps maintain a high level of interoperability, enhances military-to-military relations and combined combat capabilities. Additionally, it increases our armed forces' ability to respond quickly and work together efficiently to provide relief and assistance in the event of natural disasters and other crises. Balikatan is an annual bilateral Republic of the Philippines-U.S. military exercise focusing on field training, humanitarian assistance and a command post exercise.
