Philippine Navy and Marine units conducted a mock amphibious
assault in Ternate, Cavite
"This mock amphibious raid was a combined special
operations designed to put into test, evaluate and further enhance the
capability of the Fleet-Marine personnel in the conduct of an integrated attack
from its initiation from the sea through naval platforms, to the insertion of
troops and infiltration into the hostile terrain, to demolition raid and
close-quarter combats and finally to the extraction of the VIPs from the
enemy-laden environment," he added.
Aside from war-fighting capabilities, it was also an avenue
for the troops to run through the tactical combat casualty care by air and
water that comprised of life-saving techniques and strategies for providing
first aid and care on the battlefield for combat casualties.
Exercise “PAGSISIKAP” 2015 is the 12th iteration of the
annual Fleet-Marine amphibious exercise conducted by the PN in order to develop
and achieve an amphibious-capable and credible force and enable the
Fleet-Marine forces to assert more efficiency in the conduct of its mandated
task.
