    Philippine Marine Staff Sgt. Calixton J. Deatras demonstrates how to make a fire using dry bamboo during basic jungle survival training April 8 at Camp O’Donnell, Philippines. Bamboo, a common plant found in the Asian-Pacific region, has a multitude of uses, which can help the Marines survive, said Deatras. The survival training is part of Balikatan 2013, an annual bilateral exercise in its 29th iteration, which provides a venue for Armed Forces of the Philippines and U.S. military forces to develop and continue to enhance interoperability across a wide range of military actions. Deatras is the armorer noncommissioned officer with Force Reconnaissance Battalion, AFP. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Courtney G. White/Released)
