The Dipaculao Police Department hosted a basic lifesaving course for Aurora Province leadership and youth at the Municipality Center in Dipaculao. U.S. service members with 405th Civil Affairs Battalion participating in Balikatan 23, alongside Armed Forces of the Philippines civil affairs lead Army Capt. Candidato Paduman, worked with the attendees to better educate them on lifesaving steps in the event of a serious injury. 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. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Federico S. Marquez Jr.
