PUERTO PRINCESA, Palawan, Philippines -- U.S. Marines and Filipino contractors, with Prudential Customs Brokerage Services, Inc., assist in lowering a High Mobility Multi-purpose Wheeled Vehicle off of "Thor Scan," a Military Sealift Command Contracted Cargo Ship. The HMMWV is carrying a Smart-Transmission, which provides a satellite broadcast. The cargo will be used by the U.S. and Philippine military forces participating in Exercise Balikatan 2004, an annual U.S. and Republic of the Philippines bilateral combined exercise, which will be held in the Philippines Feb. 23 - March 7. The exercise demonstrates U.S. resolve and commitment to train, advise and assist the government of the Philippines.
