During this training, soldiers conducted a “Cold Hit,” assaulting the objective sight unseen, to closely replicate combat conditions in a training 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. (U.S. Army Photo by 1st Lt.
