@ManilaBoy45, when you mention Philippines please type PhAF for Air Force, PhN for Navy to distinguish it from Pakistan Air Force and Navy that are PAF and PN. Take the notes.

Make sure, you use Ph as a prefix in the titles as it confuses it with Pakistan forces.

Use PhAF,PhN,PhA for Phillipines forces. Cheers
