    U.S. service members receive the Philippine Military Civic Action medal during the closing ceremony for Matangharon Elementary School in Iloilo, Philippines, as part of Exercise Balikatan, April 16, 2016. The construction project is one of multiple Humanitarian Civic Assistance events taking place during this year's exercise, designed to improve the quality of life for the local populace and strengthen the bond between the two nations. Balikatan, which means "shoulder to shoulder" in Filipino, is an annual bilateral training exercise aimed at improving the ability of Philippine and U.S. military forces to work together during planning, contingency and humanitarian assistance and disaster relief operations.
