Alison Zilko, a gender advisor, supporting the Balikatan Medical Interoperability Team, poses for a photo with U.S. female servicemembers during Balikatan 23, Baler, Aurora, Philippines, April 26, 2023. For exercise Balikatan 23, 9th ESB partnered with 355th Aviation Engineer Wing to provide the local community quicker access to medical care. 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 Lance Cpl. Sebastian Riveraaponte)
