Philippine Marine Sgt. Bimbo R. Busico explains survival skills to Armed Forces of the Philippines and U.S. Marines during basic jungle survival training April 8 at Camp O'Donnell, Philippines. The survival training is part of Balikatan 2013, an annual bilateral exercise in its 29th iteration, which provides a venue for AFP and U.S. military forces to develop and continue to enhance interoperability across a wide range of military actions. "The survival training is to instruct the Marines on the basic skills to survive in a jungle setting," said Busico. "They learned how to make traps and snares, produce fire using bamboo, create a shelter, and find food." Busico is an instructor with Force Reconnaissance Battalion, AFP.
