FORT BONIFACIO, Metro Manila – The Commanding General
Philippine Army led the Commissioning Ceremony of the Speaker of the
House of Representatives here today, November 25, 2020.
Lt. Gen. Cirilito Sobejana administered the donning of

Velasco.
Part of the current thrust of the Philippine Army is the
enhancement of its reserve manpower and personnel recruitment system as
part of the development of its land power capabilities. The donning of
ranks in the military symbolizes the conferment of authority and
responsibility. The ceremony also formalizes the inception of the new
officers to the reserve component of the Philippine Army as they take
their oath to serve in the defense of our country and people.
“We are proud to have you in the Reserve Force of the
Philippine Army. Like the rest of the reservists, you know your
integration into the Philippine Army brings a promising advantage in our
efforts on nation building, disaster preparedness, and in conducting
non-traditional roles that requires legal actions,” Lt. Gen. Sobejana
said in his remarks.
