Two V-22 Ospreys and two CH-53 Sea Stallions were utilized to transport 1,200 food packs and 56 solar panels to Fuga and Calayan islands to aid victims of recent typhoons.
 
The relief goods were loaded at Lal-lo Airport in Cagayan, an Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA) site. Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro and AFP Chief of Staff General Romeo S Brawner JR PA personally visited the said EDCA site which is being used to boost disaster response capabilities while fostering mutual assistance.

Developing facilities in new EDCA sites will strengthen our maritime domain awareness and security, and serve as basing for our current and future assets.  (Photos by: Pfc Carmelotes PN(M),PAOAFP)
