PHILIPPINE and US Marines demonstrated on Wednesday lethal firepower in two separate live fire exercises in the culmination of the 10-day Kamandag 09-25 Exercises in Ilocos Region and Tarlac.
The Philippine Marines , in a statement, reported that troops successfully executed counter-landing drills simulating defense against enemy lines.

'This high-impact training event was closely observed by military partners from the United States, France, Netherlands and Thailand, highlighting the expanding role of Kamandag as a platform for regional security cooperation and joint force development in the Indo-Pacific,' said Maj. Jan Malana, exercise director for Philippine Marines Public Affairs. Meanwhile, in Tarlac, joint troops held live-fire drills using 81-mm mortar in the presence of Thailand observers.
