    Exercise Balikatan       

    The 1st Battalion, 27th Infantry Regiment, "Wolfhounds" insignia is displayed on the wall the Chief’s Mess aboard the USS Miguel Keith (ESB 5) April 23, 2023. As part of Balikatan 23, the unit conducted ship-to-shore air assaults from the USS Miguel Keith to train for amphibious expeditionary operations in a littoral environment. 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.
