The U.S. Marine Corps Air Combat Element aboard the USS Wasp (LHD 1) conducted flight operations from April 1 to April 11, during Exercise Balikatan 2019 in the Philippine Sea. “Balikatan" is a Filipino term that means "shoulder-to-shoulder" or "sharing the load together," which characterizes the spirit of the exercise and represents the partnership between the U.S. and the Philippines, as well as their commitment to the Mutual Defense Treaty. It is an annual exercise between the U.S. military and Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), along with participants from the Australian Defense Force (ADF). (U.S. Marine Corps video by Cpl.
