    Exercise Balikatan       

    Soldiers of Able Company, 1-27 Infantry Battalion “Wolfhounds” and CH-47s from Task Force Saber (2-6 CAV, 25th Combat Aviation Brigade) conduct a ship-to-shore air assault on-board the USS Miguel Keith to train for amphibious expeditionary operations in a littoral environment. TF Wolfhound and TF Saber continue to build combat readiness together and strengthen the TF SABERWOLF relationship!

    Balikatan, Tagalog for “shoulder-to-shoulder,” is an annual bilateral exercise between the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the U.S. military. The exercise provides unique opportunities for participating forces to increase interoperability and provide tangible benefits for the people of the Philippines. Humanitarian civic assistance projects support local communities in the Philippines and strengthen our partnership.
