Flags at half staff for Lucero

From Malaya (Jun 4): Flags at half staff for Lucero

CAMP Aguinaldo, the Armed Forces’ general headquarters in Quezon City, and all Army camps throughout the country are flying flags in half staff, mourning for Brig. Gen. Daniel Lucero who died Sunday after going scuba diving in Zamboanga del Sur.

The flags will remain on half staff until Lucero, commander of the Army’s 1st Infantry Division based in Zamboanga del Sur and once AFP spokesman, is interred, said Maj. Ramon Zagala, chief of the AFP public affairs office.

The body of Lucero, a member of the Philippine Military Academy Class of 1983, is in a chapel inside the 1st ID headquarters in Labangan town. It is scheduled to be brought to the Army headquarters in Fort Bonifacio in Taguig today.

 Lucero collapsed after scuba diving at Tabak beach in Tukuran town, also in Zamboanga del Sur around 1:55 p.m. Sunday, during the reception of second lieutenants who are newly assigned with the Army division.

Lucero, 54, is survived by wife Maria Consuelo and daughter Paula Divina.
