Gazmin man appointed Samar Army commander

From InterAksyon (Sep 14): Gazmin man appointed Samar Army commander

A general who is reportedly close to Defense Secretary Voltaire Gazmin on Saturday took over command of the Army's 8th Infantry Division based in Samar.

Brig. Gen. Jet Velarmino, former chief of staff of the Philippine Army and member of the Philippine Military Academy (PMA) "Sandigan" Class 1982, took over the command following the retirement of Maj. Gen. Gerardo Layug.

"I envision that under my charge, the soldiers of 8ID will keep the genuine spirit of Bayanihan alive. I will definitely work by the defining framework of the AFP Internal Peace and Security Plan (IPSP) Bayanihan and the Army Transformation Roadmap (ATR)."
