  Bolivian Navy

As Bolivia does not boarder any oceans, their navy is stationed by Lake Titicaca. The navy is small, but proud. Bolivia is since many years back in a dispute with Chile regarding their right to have a small corridor in northern Chile out to the Pacific Ocean. Hence, the motto of the Bolivia Navy is to make claim to this piece of coast line they feel they are entitled too. While they wait for this to happen, the have to settle with these kinds of trainings on the shores of Lake Titicaca.
