Badoc, Ilocos Norte — July 28, 2025 — KGKirk Aeronautics Corp. was awarded a Plaque of Appreciation by the Philippine Marine Corps, through the Headquarters Marine Battalion Landing Team‑8 (MBLT‑8), for its unwavering support and invaluable services to the unit.
The recognition was formally given during a simple but meaningful ceremony held at MBLT‑8 headquarters in Sitio 5, Barangay 7‑B, Sta. Cruz Sur, Badoc, Ilocos Norte. In the citation, the battalion expressed deep gratitude for the assistance KGKirk provided—particularly in aviation logistics and operational coordination—which greatly contributed to successfully executing the unit’s mission.
This latest recognition underscores KGKirk’s growing role as a reliable partner of the allied uniformed services, particularly in Northern Luzon.

KGKirk’s collaboration with the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) spans engagements with the Philippine Air Force, Army, and Marine Corps, particularly in support of air mobility, humanitarian response, and staging operations. Notably, the company has also assisted in the arrival and logistics of U.S. military aircraft and personnel during multilateral missions, reinforcing Philippine–U.S. defense ties in the region.
By actively supporting training deployments and real-world missions—from disaster relief to defense cooperation—KGKirk plays a vital role in advancing regional security and readiness in the face of natural and man-made challenges.
Receiving this plaque from MBLT‑8 is more than a token of thanks—it affirms KGKirk’s values of solidarity, service, and sovereignty. The recognition is a proud moment for the company and reflects its commitment to contributing to national and local missions beyond aviation.
