Layunin ng naturang exercise ang pagpapahusay ng operasyon at teamwork ng navies ng mga

Sa pambukas na seremonya na ginanap nitong Lunes sa Naval Station Jose Andrada, Maynila,
sinabi ni PN chief Vice Adm. Toribio Adaci Jr., “It has since been a beacon of cooperation and
readiness and a testament of the enduring bond between the Philippines and the United States.”


Sinabi pa ni Adaci na hindi lamang ang pagde-depensa ng ating teritoryo ang sakop ng
exercise, kundi pati na rin ang paglaban sa krimen na nagmumula sa ibayong dagat.
