PROPOSED REMARKS DURING CQB TRAINING GRADUATION

IT IS MY PLEASURE TO JOIN YOU IN THIS CLOSE QUARTER

BATTLE TRAINING GRADUATION OF CLASS 02-2019.
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OF YOU FOR THE SUCCESSFUL
COMPLETION OF THE COURSE.

DURING THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS, I HAVE SEEN YOU

AROUND RUNNING WITH YOUR RIFLES AND RUCKSACKS, I EVEN
OVERHEAR YOUR PHYSICAL EXERCISES AT NIGHT WHEN I PASS
BY. GOOD JOB! CHICKEN NA LANG SAINYO ANG PFT.

THIS QUARTER BATTLE TRAINING WAS DESIGNED TO TRAIN

YOU ON THE PRINCIPLES OF EFFECTIVELY OPERATING AS A
SINGLE TEAM IN AN URBAN ENVIRONMENT SPECIALLY
FOCUSING ON SELECTIVE FIRE TECHNIQUES. I LEARNED THAT
OUR STURDY STUDENTS HERE CAME FROM THE DIFFERENT
SQUADRONS OF 600TH AIR BASE GROUP. THE TECHNIQUES
BEING INSTILLED AND SHARPENED IN THIS COURSE IS VERY
RELEVANT TO YOUR MANDATED MISSION WHICH INCLUDES
PROVIDING SECURITY AT CLARK AIR BASE.

IN PERFORMING THIS MISSION, PERSONNEL NEEDS

PROFICIENCY WITH WEAPONS, SKILLS IN RAPID ASSAULT AND
PRECISE APPLICATION OF LETHAL FORCE AND MAKING SPLIT-
SECOND DECISIONS IN ORDER TO MINIMIZE ACCIDENTAL
CASUALTIES. ON THE OTHER HAND, I HOPE THAT IT WAS NOT
ONLY YOUR PHYSICAL STRENGTH AND COMBAT SKILLS THAT
WERE ENHANCED DURING THIS COURSE. I EXPECT THAT MORE
IMPORTANTLY, YOU DEVELOPED A HIGHER SENSE OF
DISCIPLINE AND THE SPIRIT OF MALASAKIT TO YOUR
SQUADMATES.

AS YOU REPORT BACK TO YOUR RESPECTIVE SQUADRONS,

INSTILL THE SAME SPIRIT TO YOUR JUNIORS. I AM HAPPY TO
HAVE WITNESSED YOUR DEMONSTRATION AWHILE BACK, IT
SEEMS THAT THAT THE OVERALL AIM HAS BEEN ACHIEVED AND
I CHALLENGE YOU ALL TO EFFECTIVELY APPLY THE
KNOWLEDGE GAINED FROM THE COURSE IN ALL YOUR FUTURE
ENDEAVORS. AS YOU ARE ALL AWARE, THE PNP AND THE JOINT
TASK FORCE ARE SOMETIMES AUGMENTING PERSONNEL FROM
THE PHILIPPINE AIR FORCE FOR DUTIES WHERE YOUR SKILLS
ARE VERY MUCH NEEDED. IN THIS REGARD, YOU ARE NOW
PREPARED.

FINALLY, MAY I RECOGNIZE AND COMMEND THE EFFORTS

MADE BY YOUR GROUP COMMMANDER, HIS DEPUTY, AND TO
THE COURSE DIRECTOR FOR THIS INITIATIVE. I URGE YOU TO
MAINTAIN THE SAME TEMPO IN YOUR UPCOMING COURSES.
THANK YOU!
