U.S. Navy corpsman HM2 Morgan Jacobs observes amphibious operations July 18, 2017 aboard Camp Schwab, Okinawa, Japan during training with the Philippine Marines and Sailors from Assault Armor Battalion. The Philippine Marine Corps recently purchased amphibious assault vehicles and are working with U.S. Marines to learn different amphibious procedures – such as hand signaling, egress training, and water operations. This is the first time the Philippine military has trained on an American base. “The Filipino are awesome and very nice,” said Jacobs. “Working with them has been a great experience.” Jacobs is an Adrian, Michigan with 1st platoon, Charlie Co., 3rd Assault Amphibian Battalion attached to Combat Assault Battalion, 3rd Marine Division through the unit deployment program.
