Day One of the At Sea Events of the Naval Forces Western Mindanao’s Exercise “Pagsasama” 2013 reeled off Saturday in the Basilan and Sulu Straits.
The first day of the At Sea Events consist of the Maritime Interdiction Operation Exercise, Search and Rescue Exercise, and Gunnery Exercise.
Exercise Director Navy Capt. Albert Mogol said seven Philippine Navy vessels, Rigid-Hulled Inflatable Boat from the Naval Special Operation Group, and vessels from PN Affiliated Reserved Units are participating in the scenario-driven exercises, which will be participated in by PN’s active and reserve forces.
The culmination of the At Sea Events is scheduled Sunday with the Amphibious Operations and Civil Military Operation activities, according to Mogol.
He said the residents can avail themselves of free dental and medical services at the NFWM booths near the Philippine Coconut Authority (compound Beach Area), in San Ramon, Barangay Talisayan, this city.
He is optimistic this year’s maritime exercises and capacity-building activities will further strengthen the Navy.
“We are keeping our hopes high for a productive and successful training ahead,” he said.
