integrity to its national territory from internal and
external threats, adheres to the principle of
supremacy of civilian authority over the military at

 BRIEF HISTORY OF THE AFP

The AFP identifies itself

with the Filipino people’s
historical struggles for
freedom and justice and
their vigilance against any
attempt to violate the
country’s integrity and
sovereignty.
 BRIEF HISTORY OF THE AFP

The AFP as the

embodiment of the cherished
martial values and traditions
of the Filipino people, traces
its roots to certain historical
events foremost of which is
the Battle of Mactan on 27
April 1521 where Lapu-Lapu,
the acknowledge father of
the AFP, first signaled
` our love for freedom.
BRIEF HISTORY OF THE AFP

The Dagohoy, Revolt in 1744, the

Muslim resistance and other similar
uprisings against Spanish
colonialism, the founding of the
Katipunan on 07 July 1892 by
Andres Bonifacio, considered as
the father of the Philippine Army,
the Tejeros convention on 22 March
1897 which proclaimed officially our
desire for complete independence
and thereafter gave birth to the
Philippine Army. Subsequently, the
Philippine Navy was created on 20
May 1898.
BRIEF HISTORY OF THE AFP

On 12 June 1898, the Philippine

Independence was declared at Kawit,
Cavite, and for the first time, the Philippine
Flag was unfurled by General Emilio
Aguinaldo and our National Hymn was
played. The Filipino-American hostilities
between 1898 and 1899 further
demonstrated the Filipino soldier’s best in
terms of honor, valor, loyalty, duty and
solidarity despite the overwhelming
superiority of the enemy forces. To hasten
the Philippine campaign on peace and
order, the Philippine Military Academy was
organized on 25 October 1898. By virtue of
the National Defense Act enacted officially
on 21 December 1935, The Armed Forces
of the Philippines was created.
