    Exercise Balikatan       

    U.S. Soldiers with Charlie Company, 1st Battalion, 27th Infantry Battalion, 2nd Infantry Brigade Combat Team, and from the 65th Brigade Engineer Battalion assault a hill to clear a bunker during a platoon live fire exercise as part of Balikatan 23 on April 17, 2023, after reducing a wire obstacle with a brazier charge, a method of employing C4 high explosives.

    Balikatan 23 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. (U.S. Army Photo by 1st Lt. Alex Choy)
