U.S. Marines, with 3d Marine Littoral Regiment, 3d Marine Division, pose for a group photo with students and faculty of Lal-lo National High School during Balikatan 23 in Lal-lo, Philippines, April 24, 2023. The four-finger gesture is a sign of respect in the city of Lal-lo. 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. Balikatan 2023 featured four engineering projects as well as cooperative health engagements. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Eric Huynh)
