Citizens of the Baan Phun community welcome U.S. Army Soldiers from 492nd Civil Affairs Battalion and the Royal Thai Army during a visit to a textile mill, where locals create wares from cotton using looms and traditional practice, during Hanuman Guardian in Thailand on March 18, 2026.
Hanuman Guardian is a bilateral training exercise between the U.S. Army and the Royal Thai Army in the Kingdom of Thailand. Now in its 17th year, the exercise enhances readiness through realistic training while reinforcing the enduring U.S.–Thailand alliance, one of America’s oldest partnerships, dating back to 1833, and a shared commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific.
