U.S. Marine Corps Cpl. Joel Gonzales Ochoa, a satellite communications operator with Headquarters Battalion, 3d Marine Division, establishes satellite communications during Balikatan 23 at Marine Base Gregorio Lim, Philippines, April 11, 2023. Balikatan 2023 is the 38th iteration of the annual bilateral exercise between the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the U.S. military. The exercise includes three weeks of training focused on amphibious operations, command and control, humanitarian assistance, urban operations and counterterrorism skills throughout northern and western Luzon. Coastal defense training figures prominently in the Balikatan 23 training schedule. Ochoa, a native of Bakersfield, California, shared his philosophy on small unit leadership saying, “Making sure every Marine is well trained and gets hands on with their gear so they are ready for any mission is of utmost importance. Allow the Marines to work on their own. It’s important to see how they handle problems that occur. If needed give them solutions that you learned along the way.” (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl.
