U.S. Marines, with 9th Engineer Support Battalion, and members of the Armed Forces of the Philippines work together to build a health care clinic to better the community of Baler during exercise Balikatan 23 in Baler, Aurora, Philippines, April 22, 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 video by Cpl. Alpha Hernandez)
