    A Japan Ground Self-Defense Force soldier takes notes for an upcoming counter landing live- fire exercise as part of Exercise Balikatan 2026 at La Paz Sand Dunes, Laoag City, Philippines, April 26, 2026. The meeting facilitated a shared understanding between the 25th Infantry Division and JGSDF roles throughout the counter land live-fire exercise and clarified each unit’s
    role in the exercise. Balikatan is a longstanding annual exercise between the Armed Forces of the Philippines and U.S. military that represents the strength of our alliance, improves our capable
    combined force, and demonstrates our commitment to regional peace and prosperity. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Duke Edwards)
