Troops from the Philippines, the United States, Japan, and South Korea will conduct a series of joint training exercises titled KAMANDAG 7 throughout Luzon, including Batanes; Zamboanga, Tawi-Tawi, and Palawan on Nov. 9-20, officials said.
The name KAMANDAG comes from the phrase"Kaagapay Ng Mga Mandirigma Ng Dagat,” which means"Cooperation of the Warriors of the Sea."
“During KAMANDAG 7, participating forces will conduct humanitarian aid and disaster relief training to include chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear training operations, littoral search and rescue, coastal defense training, and amphibious operations; conduct medical subject matter expert exchanges; and participate in staff integration events along the eastern and northern coasts of the Philippines,” the US Marine Corps said in a statement issued Friday.
