U.S., Philippine Sailors Help Special-Needs School: U.S. and Philippine sailors hand out toys and school supplies to students of Kalalake Elementary School in Olongapo City April 19, during a community relations project as part of Exercise Balikatan 2009. The sailors also painted school buildings and donated toys and cookware to the school, which focuses on children with special needs. Balikatan 2009 is an annual humanitarian-assistance and training exercise that allows the Philippine and U.S. militaries to learn from one another as well as help the local communities.
